The spokesperson for the Kaduna-based cleric, Ahmad Gumi, Tukur Mamu, has been arrested in Egypt.
Mr Mamu who was the lead negotiator for the victims of the Abuja-Kaduna Train attack who were abducted by Terrorists was arrested and detained by Interpol at the Cairo International Airport while awaiting a connecting flight to Saudi Arabia for lesser Hajj.
Mr Mamu is reportedly being flown back to Nigeria though he reportedly told Premium Times that he was arrested by Interpol after he was interrogated and nothing was found incriminating against him.
He was arrested in the company of his two wives and one other person.
He is expected to arrive at Aminu Kano International Airport in Kano Wednesday afternoon and may be interrogated further by officials of the Nations’ top Domestic Security outfit, the Department of State Security (DSS).
