On Tuesday, January 25, a prominent auto dealer in Gusau, the capital of Zamfara state, and four others were charged before a chief magistrate’s court for allegedly killing, decapitating, and eating body parts of Ahmad Yakubu Aliyu, a 9-year-old kid. The charges against them were read by the magistrate, Sa’adu Gurbin Bore, and they all pled not guilty.

The judge then adjourned the case till February 8 2022 for mention. Earlier, the parents of the slain boy and other sympathizers had stormed the court, seeking for justice for their murdered son. They said they were troubled by the killing and would never forgive the culprits.

The mother of the boy, who identified herself as Jamila Abdurrahman Hafiz, told Daily Trust that they were at the court to ensure that justice is swiftly served and that the blood of her innocent child was not spilled in vain. The judge then ordered that three of the accused be remanded in Gusau Correctional Centre and the other two young ones among them be taken to a Remand home.
