The trial of Sheikh Ibrahim El-zakzaky and his wife Zeenat in Kaduna has resumed today, Wednesday, March 31, 2021.
AllNews Nigeria understands that Zakzaky and his wife are facing eight charges including murder and unlawful assembly and harassment of the public among others.

Kaduna State Magistrate Gideon Kurada adjourned the case to Wednesday, March 8, after the prosecution presented 14 witnesses.
Zakzaky and his wife have been detained since December 2015 following clashes between the cleric’s followers and the Nigerian military, which led to the killing of hundreds of members of the group.
One person identified as Muhsin Abdallah was reportedly killed as police attempted to disperse the IMN crowd who were protesting the non-release of their leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, and his wife, Zeenat by the federal government.
