Iran Press/Africa: The IMN spokesperson, Musa, in a statement, said the interference of the Federal Government raised suspicions that it was planning to kill the Sheikh in India using international connections.
Musa said, “He (Sheikh Zakzaky) insisted that if he would not be allowed to see the doctors who brought him to India, he would rather return to Nigeria and seek another destination for his treatment," Iran Press citing Al-Alam.
“This became clear because of the government’s stance insisting on other doctors other than the ones that he was in India to meet. They finally decided to bring him back for refusing to accept to be treated by their chosen doctors,” he added.
The Shiite group also condemned the Federal Government for not permitting the Sheik to speak to journalists at the airport, demanding the secret police to disclose where the Shiite leader was being kept.
Musa stated that Sheikh Zakzaky and his wife were not allowed to rest after enduring 11 hours' flight to New Delhi from Abuja, noting that they were “forcibly treated” by hospital staff.
“When the Sheikh noticed some physical assault, in addition to the background circumstances, he lost complete confidence in the hospital and demanded to see his doctors for a substitute arrangement,” the spokesperson said.
The IMN spokesman also alleged that the Federal Government presented Zakzaky to the Indian government as a “dangerous suspect” with an unknown ailment and demanded stringent security around him.
He said the group would continue with its struggle to ensure that the Shiite leader got the medical treatment he deserved as ordered by the Kaduna High Court.
