Two female students of Federal
University of Technology (FUT) Minna, on Friday, narrowly escaped death at
Minna Jumma’at Central Mosque for refusing their bags to be searched at the
mosque premises.
The students, who were wearing
veil (hijab) were suspected to be female suicide bombers by members of the
public.
An eye witness said that the
ladies arrived the mosque vicinity when prayer was about to commence and that
they resisted attempt for their bags to be searched.
The source, who craved anonymity,
said timely intervention by policemen who were on guard around the mosque area
saved the lives of the two students as members of the public had started
beating them.
