A scrap dealer in Kano State, Nasiru Ghali, has been dragged before a Shariah court sitting in Gama for allegedly setting ablaze a car during a political rally in the state.
Ghali, alongside three others who are yet to be arrested, was arraigned for burning a Mercedes Benz.
When the charges were read to him by the prosecution council, Aliyul Abidin, the defendant pleaded not guilty.
Counsel to the defendant, Barr Sunusi Dandago, applied that the court should grant his client bail.
