Two suspects have been arrested by the Kano State Police Command who under the guise of #Endbadgovernanceprotest, invaded the state high court, vandalized offices and carted away exhibits in ongoing cases, including guns recovered from suspected criminals.
The spokesperson of the command, SP Abdullahi Haruna Kiyawa, who disclosed this in a statement on Monday, August 5, 2024, said the suspects have been arraigned.
Meanwhile, the spokesperson for Kano State High Court, Baba Ibrahim, in a statement on Sunday, said the judiciary had launched a probe to track the vandals and bring them to justice.
Ibrahim said that on Thursday, August 1, they broke into the premises of the headquarters of the state high court, vandalised offices and stole an unspecified amount of money and guns seized from kidnappers and kept as exhibits in ongoing cases.
“Private and official vehicles parked on the premises of the court were razed, while some were vandalised by the protest,” he explained.
“Offices, including that of the Chief Judge and other judges in the court, were vandalised. The protesters destroyed the new and old case files and scattered everything in the buildings.
“Exhibits, including guns kept in the court’s store, were also looted.
“This is the first time the Kano State Judiciary has witnessed such an incident. Vehicles parked on the court’s promises were also vandalised, and looted.”
