BEVERLY HILLS, July 18, (THEWILL) – Security has been beefed up in the Kaduna state capital as the trial of embattled Leader of Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Sheik Ibrahim El- Zakzaky resumes.

El-Zakzaky and his wife, Zeenat are facing an 8-count charge by the Kaduna state government over allegations of culpable homicide, unlawful assembly, and disruption of the public peace, among others.

The Presiding Judge, Justice Gideon Kurada, had during the last sitting on March 26, 2019, adjourned the case indefinitely following his appointment to serve as a member of the Elections Petitions Tribunal in Yobe state.

Due to the resumed trial of Elzakzaky and his wife today, all major roads leading to the Kaduna state High Court Complex have been cordoned off by security operatives.

Security is also beefed up at the court premises, to avert to the breakdown of law and order, especially with the recent violent protests by IMN members in Abuja, the nation’s capital.
