A Kano Magistrate's Court has ordered a suspect, Nazifi Kabir Liringo, to be remanded in a correctional centre following allegations that he killed his friend while they were cutting grass in Abuja.

The charge against Liringo is culpable homicide under Section 222 of the Penal Code.

Liringo was subsequently ordered to remain in custody, with the matter adjourned until October 6, 2026.
