Members
of the violent Islamic sect, Boko Haram, have instituted the Shara law
in Mubi, Adamawa State, captured by the insurgents last week.
The
insurgents were also said to have amputated the hands of 10 residents
said to have been found guilty of sundry offences, including looting of
property of fleeing residents.
Sources in Mubi town said they saw the terrorists parading 10 persons whose hands were said to have been amputated.
The
victims were said to been amputated in the presence of residents the
insurgents asked to converge to witness the enforcement of Sharia law.
An
eye witness account indicated that two imams were dragged out from a
mosque and beheaded for allegedly preaching against Boko Haram. The
insurgents also advised all Christians in the Mubi Local Government Area
to relocate to other areas except they were prepared to be islamised or
be killed.
The source further said that the Emir’s palace in
Mubi had been converted to the residence of the ‘Amir’ and that the
insurgents hoisted their flags to signify that they were in control of
the palace.
