The Acting Commandant General, Musa Kibiya, said that the board made the arrest after getting some information from the residents of the two areas at different times. “The residents of the area feed us with information and when we went to Tudun Murtala we found five women and three men eating in a broad daylight. “At Sharada, we were able to arrest three women.” He added that what those people did is against the teaching of Islam. But the arrested people denied committing what they were accused of, saying they have their reasons for that. The girls said that they did not fast because they were seeing their period, a circumstance that disallows fast.
