Senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has disclosed that he has honoured an invitation by the police in Kaduna on Monday.
The Senator disclosed this on his verified Twitter handle, where he revealed that he was later allowed to go, based on self recognition.
“The Police invited me to appear today by 10:45 a.m. I honoured the invitation to the Police Headquarters in Kaduna by 10:45 a.m., with clear conscience.I wrote my statements. I was granted ‘self bail’. I have left,” he tweeted.
The Kaduna State Police Command had written Shehu asking him to appear at the command headquarters after identifying him as a person of interest in a murder case.
The letter, with reference number, CR: 2000/KDS/VOL 5H/72, asked Sani to appear before the Police on April 30 and was said to have been routed through the Clerk of the National Assembly, while the Senate President was also copied.
A murder suspect, Isa Garba, who was arrested by the military, was alleged to have implicated the federal lawmaker after he was transferred to the police.
“This is in connection with a case of criminal conspiracy and culpable homicide transferred to this office by 1 Division, Nigerian Army, Kaduna, alongside with exhibit audio CD, in which your name was mentioned by the principal suspect,” the state Commissioner of Police, Austin Iwar, said in the letter.
