Mr. Femi Falana (SAN), the lawyer to the leader of the Islamic
Movement in Nigeria, Ibraheem Elzakzaky, on Wednesday, described as
worrisome the tense security situation put up by Nigerian forces
around the Indian hospital where the cleric and his wife, Zeenat,
had travelled for treatment.
He, however, said that the situation later became normal
following intervention by the Nigerian Ambassador to India, adding
that his clients were set for treatment.
He said, “The reports from the Indian hospital are very
disturbing. We have forwarded the complaints of the El-Zakzakys to
the Federal Government.
“I have just confirmed that the Nigerian High Commission in
India has intervened to ensure that the tight security situation is
relaxed to prepare the El-Zakzakys for the medical treatment and
that they are allowed access to their personal physicians.”
