Police Transfer Suspects in Russian Flag Incident to Abuja for Sedition Charges

The Kano State Police Command has transferred 76 suspects, including a foreigner, to the Force Headquarters in Abuja for discreet investigation on charges of sedition.
The suspects were arrested for flying Russian flags during the recent nationwide hunger protest that turned violent in the North.
Commissioner of Police Salman Garba disclosed this during a press conference, stating, “In line with the directives of the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, to all commands and formations, the Kano Command worked diligently and professionally towards addressing the aftermath of these events, and these efforts resulted in the arrest of 873 suspects and recovery of large quantity of exhibits.”
Garba also announced the arrest and prosecution of 150 suspects for violating the curfew enforced by the Kano State government, as well as the arrest of six suspects linked to the destruction and looting of the Kano Printing Press. Additionally, 600 suspects were arrested for various offenses, including criminal conspiracy, inciting disturbance, riot, theft, mischief, and arson.
The police recovered exhibits such as two AK-47 rifles and other substantial properties looted by the hoodlums. Despite the challenges posed by the recent protest, Garba highlighted the achievements recorded by the Police Command in crime prevention, management, and control within the period under review.
Meanwhile, Kano State Governor Abba Yusuf has suspended indefinitely the curfew imposed on the state over the eruption of violence during the #EndbadGovernance protests.
The State Commissioner for Information, Halilu Baba Dantiye, made the disclosure, stating that peace has gradually returned to the commercial city of Kano, and banks, Sabon Gari market, and multiple business premises have all opened their shops for the commencement of business operations.
