Sheikh Zakzaky was detained along with his wife Zeenat and has since remained detained illegally without charge. They were detained in December last year after witnessing another three of their sons killed by the Nigerian government under the command of army general Tukur Buratai who also killed and secretly buried hundreds of Shia Muslims in concert with Kaduna state governor Nasir el-Rufai.
