A Magajin Gari Sharia Court on Monday seized bangles, belonging to a complainant, Aliyu Ibrahim, for contempt.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Ibrahim, a teenager, had worn female bangles on his wrist and had also indecently dressed before the court.

When the Judge, Murtala Nasir, asked him why he was indecently dressed and had female bangles on, Ibrahim replied that it was a gift from his female friend.

Irked Ibrahim’s response, Nasir asked the court orderly to seize the bangles and threatened to commit him to prison if he ever exhibited such rude behaviour in the future.

The judge later discharged the defendant, Anas Ussaini of the assault charge.

Earlier, the Police Prosecutor, Insp Luka Sadau, said the complainant had on Sept 4, reported at the Magajin Gari Police Division that Anas and  Aliyu Ussaini, now at large, beat him up.
