Kano political singer, Dauda Kahutu, popularly known as Rara, on Tuesday requested a High Shari’ah Court sitting at Rijiyar Zaki to disregard a case filed before it by a businessman, Muhammad Ma’aji, accusing him of non-payment of money amounting to over N10 million.
Counsel for Rara, G. A. Badawi, told the court that the case has no basis and therefore should be disregarded at the resumed hearing presided over by Justice Halhalatul Khuza’i Zakariyya.
He added that they had served their response in writing to the complainants and the court, but the prosecution claimed that they got it late when the court was about to sit.
The complainant, Muhammad Ma’aji, told the court that he has all evidence documented in writing to support his claims.
Justice Halhalatul Khuza’i Zakariyya ordered the prosecution counsel to reply to the defence counsel and the court also in writing.
Justice Halhalatul adjourned the case to May 12 for additional hearing.
