Kano State
Hisbah Operatives (Sharia Police) have arrested 32 suspected prostitutes.
The
prostitutes were arrested based on intelligence report as the operatives
launched a combat operation on several dark spots in the state.
All the
suspects were, however, dressed in customized Hisba hijab as a major step
towards comprehensive rehabilitation.
Director
General, Kano Hisba Board, Shaikh Haruna Muhammad Sandi Ibn Sina, disclosed
this while addressing the suspects at Hisba headquarters, saying “We have
ordered a high profile investigation to establish the complicity of all the
suspects.
“The parents
of all suspects would be invited for a crucial meeting with Hisba officials.”
The
Director-General, however, added that anyone found wanting would be made to
face the law according to the dictates of Sharia.
