In suit No. FHC/ABJ/CJ/189/2016, dated March 10, Mrs El-Zakzaky was said to have made inciting statement after killing of members of the movement and the arrest of her husband. The plaintiff in the suit, Danbaba Gyang, who is also the Secretary-General of Lawyers Alliance for the Defence of Democracy in Nigeria, is also asking the court to declare the Iranian Ambassador in Nigeria, Saeed Koozechi, a security threat to the country. Joined as defendants in the matter are the Inspector-General of Police, Director-General of the DSS, Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Attorney-General of the Federation. Counsel for the plaintiff, Samson Esekhaigbe, asked the court to determine whether the statement contained in an exhibit before the court was not capable of causing unrest and breach of the peace of Nigeria. He also asked the court to determine whether the various threats issued by the ambassador, also contained in an exhibit before the court were not treasonable and whether they should not be investigated and if found wanting, the president should not be advised by the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) to severe diplomatic ties with Iran. The plaintiff also wants the court to declare that the IGP, DSS and the AGF have abdicated their duties by failing to investigate, arrest and prosecute members and leaders of the Shi’ite movement for breach of public peace and attempted assassination on the life of Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant-General Tukur Buratai, in Zaria, on December 15, 2015. He asked the court to prosecute Mrs Zeenat and her husband for allegedly promoting acts capable of causing unrest and also to declare the Iranian Ambassador to Nigeria a persona non grata. No date has been fixed for the hearing of the matter.]]>
