An Upper Shari’a Court sitting in Kano, on Thursday ordered the remand of three men in a Correctional Centre for allegedly stabbing to death, Ibrahim Khalil-Danshagamu, a social media influencer.
The defendants, Aliyu Adamu, Salihu Haruna and Sani Muhammad, whose ages and addresses were not provided by the court are standing trial on a two-count charge bordering on criminal conspiracy and culpable homicide.
The prosecution counsel, Mr Nafiu Kabiru, told the court that the defendants committed the offence on Sept. 8, 2026 at Gaida Quarters, Kumbotso Local Government Area, Kano State.
He said on the same date at about 11:30 p.m the defendants trespassed into the residence of Danshagamu, situated at Gaida Quarters Kano and allegedly attacked him with a sharp knife.
