The Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) has condemned its branding as a Shiite militia by the Kaduna State Commissioner of Police, Umar Muri, describing it as mischievous.
This was contained in a press statement issued on Thursday by the President, Media Forum of the Movement, Ibrahim Musa.
The Islamic Movement said: “It is clearly a mischievous and deliberate attempt at blackmail to not only mention the Islamic Movement in a row of renown crimes, but to also insinuate that it is a militia, a false accusation the Kaduna state government had failed to prove before the State High Court despite all efforts.”
It added: “In this wise, it is worth educating him to set the record straight that the Islamic Movement in Nigeria under the revered leadership of Shaikh Ibraheem Zakzaky is a religious Movement aiming to establish Devine guidance and salvage the souls of people and not to kill them. The Movement uses knowledge and logic and does not need or use arms in achieving its lofty goals. So it is a deliberate mischief to label it as a militia.”
