The Kaduna State government on Tuesday arraigned the leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, IMN also known as Shiites, Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky before a state High Court.

The IMN leader and his wife are being arraigned on eight counts of alleged culpable homicide, unlawful assembly, disturbance of public peace, among other allegations.

They were brought to the court from Abuja, in two black SUVs amid tight security.

At the commencement of the hearing, the defence counsel, Maxwell Kyon, made an oral application for the couple on grounds that they had been in detention for over two years without trial.

Justice Kurada, however, refused the oral application made by Kyon and told him to rather file a written application which will be heard before or on the next adjourned date.
