Tahir Ibrahim, counsel to the former Managing Director of the Kano Agricultural Supply Company, Bala Mohammed, has accused the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission of disregarding court orders.

Ibrahim called on the Commission’s Chairman, Muhuyi Rimin-Gado, to comply with a court directive vacating an order that allegedly authorised the confiscation of his client’s properties.

According to The PUNCH, the controversy arises amid the PCACC’s investigation into allegations of financial mismanagement against Mohammed.

Addressing journalists on Friday evening, the lawyer criticised the anti-graft agency’s actions.

“We are asking Muhuyi to allow the court officials to do their work and comply with the court order that already vacated the order he claims he has a right to attach Bala Inuwa’s property,” Ibrahim said.

He further alleged that Rimin-Gado was undermining the judicial process.

“He (Muhuyi) does not have that right to confiscate Mohammed’s properties. He should comply with the first court order and the court order that gave police the order to vacate the place.”
