IHRC demands justice for his death as well as for all those who have suffered in the wake of the massacre in Zaria in 2015

In the letter to the High Commissioner George Adesola Oguntade, IHRC urges him to allow the sheikh to travel abroad to receive specialist care.

The move came as judges sat to hear a government appeal against a court order made over a year ago that Sheikh Zakzaky and his wife be released.

IHRC finds it scandalous that instead of upholding the rule of law the Nigerian government is actually subverting it by continuing to hold the Zakzakys in defiance of the release order

The Islamic Movement of Nigeria says it is overwhelmed by the tremendous support the sheikh has received from all over the world
