The Sokoto Police Command has denied killing three members of the Shi’ite group during their Ashura procession held on Thursday.
A statement issued Friday by the spokesman of the command, ASP Sanusi Abubakar, noted that the trending story on social media that its men killed three shi’ite members was not true.
