Missing Islamic Cleric Found In SSS Cell.

Sixty-five days after they were declared missing, Islamic Cleric, Uztadh Abdul Ganniyu Jumah and his wife, Muinat, were found in the cell of the State Security Service, SSS, Abeokuta.

It would be recalled that PM News reported that an Islamic Cleric and his wife were abducted by unknown gunmen at their residence located at 27, Fagbemi street, Ijoko, in Ado-Odo/Ota local government area of the State.

They were reported to have been whisked away from their home during the month of Ramadan at about 3:00 a.m.
There was confusion over the whereabouts of the Islamic Cleric and his pregnant wife since they were taken away. A family source who spoke to our correspondent on condition of anonymity Wednesday afternoon said they were surprise that the couple were found in a cell.

“A call was received by the principal witness, Lukman Oketokun on Tuesday to come to Abeokuta headquarters of the State Security Service. They asked him to see the Deputy Director, Operation at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday. The witness met with Deputy Director of SSS and the wife of the Cleric man, Muinat, who was heavily pregnant was released to him.
The woman who spoke with our correspondent shortly after her release, lamented that the SSS did not tell them their offense even after she was released.

“They only released me because of my condition. My husband is under detention without any reason or offence. They only gave me a letter from a gynaecologist, who advised me to proceed to the hospital for delivery,” she revealed.
When asked of her experience while in SSS cell, the troubled woman declared that she was subjected to a lot of rigorous processes, despite her condition.

Reacting to the development, Head of Legal team for the couple, Barr. Musodiq Sanni threatened that legal action would be taken against the Director of Security Service over the alleged violation of human rights of their clients.
“We have to thank the Police at Zone 2 for their investigation. Now that we have established who abducted our clients, we are going to take action against the SSS for violation of human rights.
“What the law says is that once someone is arrested, he must be charged to court within 24 hours. But, they did not let them know their offence(s) but instead detained them for 60 days and that is against the law,” Sanni said.

However, our correspondent reliably gathered from a family source that the medics, who attended to the woman in an undisclosed hospital revealed that some tests have to be done because the woman had undergone stressful condition.
According to the family source, “the hospital said it would need to induce the baby, so as to avoid death of the woman”.
Efforts to reach the Director of the security agent was unsuccessful as at the time of filling this report.
