A man identified as Usman Ali has taken his newlywed wife Maryam, before a Sharia Court sitting in Jaba, Kano State, accusing her of stealing three mobile phones valued at approximately ₦65,000.
During the court session, Maryam denied the allegations, stating that she had travelled from Abuja to Kano after enduring repeated beatings from her husband.
She told the court that she was forced to return to her parents’ home to seek refuge from the alleged abuse.
Usman also filed a complaint against three other women whom he identified as Maryam’s friends, accusing them of influencing his wife negatively and encouraging her to engage in inappropriate outings.
The presiding judge, Ustaz Rabiu Yahaya, granted Maryam bail and adjourned the case to July 15 for further hearing.
