6 Questions Regarding Mubarak Bala’s Blasphemy Case
1. Why was Mubarak not charged with any offense? By law, he should have been charged within 4 days and he has still not been charged.
2. Why was Mubarak denied access to his lawyers and his family for more than five months?
3. Why was a court order granting Mubarak access to his lawyers on June 25, ignored by the police?
4. Why did it take 164 days for a court to hear Mubarak’s fundamental rights enforcement petition when, by law, it should have been heard within 7 days?
5. Why did it take nine weeks for the court to deliver judgment in this fundamental rights case which was uncontested by the state?
6. After keeping Mubarak illegally for over 170 days, why did neither Kano State nor Kano police show up in court to defend their actions?
There are criminals to be found in this case but Mubarak is not one of them. He is the innocent victim of a ruling elite who disregard the laws of their country at will, and care nothing for fundamental rights built into the Nigerian Constitution.
