A Kano Magistrate Court sitting at Yankaba has fixed January 18, 2024 for the ruling on bail application filed by three defendants in the murder case of one Nafiu Hafizu, a driver allegedly killed by a housewife, Hafsat Surajo.
The defendants, Dayyabu Abdullahi (Hafsat’s husband), Adamu Muhammad and Nasidi Muhammad, are to be returned to the correctional centre until the next adjourned date. Hafsat is standing trial on two count charge of Murder and attempt to commit suicide.
She pleaded not guilty to charges after confessing to the police that she singlehandedly stabbed multiple times on his body after he tried to stop her from committing suicide.
The three other defendants are facing a three-count charge bordering on criminal conspiracy, concealment of fact and false information.
