“The defendants pretended to be relatives of the complainant’s wife (Fatima Alhassan).
“As a result, the complainant discovered that the first defendant, Saifullahi, was enticing his wife and that they were chatting on WhatsApp.
“The said Saifullahi was the ex-boyfriend of the complaint’s wife.”
Saifullahi pleaded not guilty, while the second and third defendants pleaded guilty to the charge.
He said the offence contravened the Kano State Shari’a Law.
