Nigeria: Sixty-five Shia Muslims arraigned in several courts in Abuja

The arrests come after three days of protests and violent clashes with police

Sixty-five Nigerian Shia Muslims have been arraigned across several courts in Abuja, after three days of protests and violent clashes with police. We hear from Mohamed Ibrahim Gamawa, a spokesperson for the group affected - Islamic Movement of Nigeria.
