A Kano State Sharia Court has ordered the remand of two vigilante operatives at a correctional centre over the alleged killing of a young man, Umar Muhammad Bachirawa.
The defendants, Mas’udu Abdullahi Bachirawa and Kabiru Adamu Bachirawa, were brought before the court by the police over allegations that they killed Umar following a disagreement involving a dog.
The case was heard by Garba Hamza Malafa, while the prosecution was led by Awaisu Sani Lawan, who asked the court to read the charges to the defendants.
After the charges were read, both men pleaded not guilty.
The prosecutor then requested an adjournment to allow him to seek legal advice from the Kano State Attorney-General’s Office.
The court granted the request and adjourned the case until December 16, 2026, for further proceedings.
