The official, who is known to be at the forefront of arresting prostitutes and other wayward girls, when questioned by the police about the woman, said she was his niece who was having issues with her husband and that that was why he kept her in a hotel room pending when the issues would be resolved.
The Commander General of the Hisbah board in the state, Ustaz Harun Muhammad Ibn Sina, who confirmed the development to Daily Trust on Wednesday, said the board had set up a committee to investigate the matter.
