Man Remanded for Allegedly Killing Friend Over Dispute
In Kano, a man identified as Adam has been ordered to be remanded in custody following his arraignment on charges of criminal conspiracy and culpable homicide. The case was presided over by Magistrate Sakina Aminu Yusuf.
Adam pleaded not guilty to the charges when they were read to him. The prosecution, represented by Barrister A.I.
Buhari, requested an adjournment to allow time to obtain legal advice from the government, which the magistrate granted. The case has been adjourned until September 8, 2026, for continuation.
The police allege that Adam, along with some accomplices who remain at large, was involved in the killing of their friend, Aliyu Abubakar Badawa. The incident reportedly arose from a dispute over a well cover belonging to a tricycle, commonly referred to as Adaidaita Sahu.
