A Magistrate’s Court in Kura, Kano State, has ordered the remand of a man identified as Abdul’aziz in a correctional facility over alleged assault of a 75-year-old hospital worker.
The suspect was accused of assaulting Hajiya Sahura Abdullahi Kura, a staff member of Kura General Hospital, after she reportedly prevented him from entering the maternity ward.
During the court proceedings, the police prosecutor, Inspector Nasiru Abubakar Dansakkwato, brought the suspect before Magistrate Muhammad Alhaji Isah.
After the charge was read to him, the suspect pleaded guilty to the offence.
The court subsequently ordered his remand in a correctional facility and adjourned the case until September 17, 2026, for further consideration. (Daily Trust)
