A Kano Higher Shari’ah Court sitting at Rijiyar Zaki presided over by Justice Halhalatul Khuza’i Zakariyya has ordered the re-summon of ace singer, Dauda Kahutu Rarara, for non-appearance before the Court.
Rarara is charged with non payment of phones money amounting to N10,300,000 he collected and distributed to people from one businessman, Muhammad Ma’aji.
The prosecution counsel, Barrister I. Imam, told the court that the accused person did not honour the court summon, therefore should order for his arrest.
However, Imam told the court that he is not sure if the writ of summon has reached the accused person.
The court asked the messenger, Isma’il Zuhudu, if he had delivered the writ of summon and he assured that he had pasted it on the gate of Rarara’s house as ordered by the court because attempts to look for him and give him hand-to-hand failed.
The Judge, Justice Halhalatul Khuza’i Zakariyya, said being the first time he is absent, the court would waive the issue and order the resummon of the singer in person or paste it again on his house at Zoo Road and publish it on the media and social media platforms.
He, therefore, adjourned the case to April 13.
