The Kano State Hisbah Board has arrested a man and his girlfriend for solemnising their marriage at Banana Restaurant on Zoo Road, Kano.

The board’s Deputy Commander General of Operations, Dr Mujahideen Abubakar, confirmed the arrest to newsmen on Thursday, stating that Hisbah personnel raided the restaurant on Wednesday night following a tip-off.

He warned that the board would not fold its arms and allow some undesirable elements to continue to violate the shari’a in the state.

According to him, the board had since launched a manhunt for all the guests who participated in the illegal solemnisation of the marriage.

The deputy commander said the couple violated all the marriage conditions, which is a flagrant violation of the Shari’a.
