33:51Now PlayingIn another display of Islamist oppression, more than 20 Muslims in northern Nigeria’s Kano state have been arrested simply for eating in public during Ramadan, with five more detained for selling food. The state’s Sharia police, the Hisbah, have vowed to continue their crackdown, with Deputy Commander Mujahid Aminudeen declaring, “We won’t condone that, and that’s why we went out to make arrests.” The religious enforcers even rely on tip-offs from outraged citizens to hunt down those daring to eat before sundown. Those caught are hauled before a Sharia court and punished accordingly, unlike last year when some were released after promising to comply. Adding to the authoritarian absurdity, the Hisbah also confirmed they’ve arrested people for "inappropriate haircuts," wearing shorts, and even tricycle drivers mixing male and female passengers. While non-Muslims are exempt, the message is clear: in Kano, violating Islamic law—even by something as basic as eating—comes with serious consequences.
