Soldiers have also reportedly mounted a check point at the outskirts of Potiskum, Yobe state, in order to frustrate any plan by members of the religious group to carry out similar trek to mourn the martyrdom of Imam Husain scheduled to commence from Kano this week. The soldiers detained a trailer carrying the personal belongings of those going to Kano for the trek, the report said while Vanguard says the road-block has resulted in stranded commuters across the state. The members of the Islamic organisation and the police have constantly clashed following protests by the former over the continued detention of their leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky. A Nigerian journalist had recently revealed that the health condition of the leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) Ibrahim El-Zakzaky is still unknown. Abdollah Idris, a deputy editor of Daily Trust newspaper in an interview with an Islamic news agency, Tasnim said there is no information on the health of the Shiite leader.
