A commander of Kano Hisbah has been arrested in the northern commercial center after being caught pant down with a married woman in a hotel.
Freedom Radio Kano reported on Tuesday that the official was nabbed in Sabon Gari area of the city. His name was not immediately mentioned, but he was described only as police chief when the matter featured on Freedom FM’s popular magazine programme “Inda Ranka”.
The arrested commander is said to be in charge of arresting beggars and prostitutes in Kano metro area. He was taken into custody after the husband of the woman with whom he allegedly had affairs filed complaints.

Hisbah officers regularly arrest unmarried people caught in the hotel, presumably for sexual activities, as part of their enforcement of the Sharia.
