The Federal High Court in Kano has adjourned till May 23 to rule on an application by the police challenging the bail granted by the court to the Majority Leader of the House of Representatives, Alhassan Ado Doguwa, who was charged with “culpable homicide, criminal conspiracy, unlawful possession of firearm, inciting disturbance and public disturbance.”

The police had in March come after the federal lawmaker representing Doguwa/Tudun-Wada Federal Constituency of Kano over allegations that he had a hand in the killing of some members of the opposition New Nigeria People’s Party in Tudun-Wada constituency during the February 18 National Assembly election.

He later, through his counsel, filed a fundamental rights suit before Justice Mohammad Yunusa of the Federal High Court , challenging the remand order on the grounds that the magistrates’ court has no jurisdiction to try the charges pressed against him.
