A court in Kano State, Nigeria, has sentenced five men to death by hanging for the brutal murder of 67-year-old Dahare Abubakar, whom they falsely accused of witchcraft.
The ruling, delivered by Judge Usman Na'abba, marks a significant moment in Nigeria's legal history as it tackles violence fueled by superstition and wrongful accusations.
The tragic incident occurred in 2023 when the convicted men attacked Ms.
Abubakar while she was working on her farm.
