Man In Police Custody After Attempting To Commit Suicide

The Kano State Police Command has arrested a yet-to-be identified man after he reportedly attempted to strangle himself.

The man was said to have been found along State Road, a few metres away from the State Government House.

He was said to have been rushed to the Muhammad Abdullahi Wase Teaching Hospital (MAWTH) for urgent medical attention.

Although passersby said some unknown thugs had attempted to strangle the man with a cable, the police denied the claim.

The Spokesperson of the Kano State Police Command, Abdullahi Haruna Kiyawa, said on Tuesday that the man had been taken into police custody.

He noted that the man confessed to having tied the cable to his neck.

“After we took him to the hospital, he had spoken the truth. Nothing has been collected from him. In fact, he tied the cable to himself. He is now in the custody of the police,” Kiwaya wrote on his Facebook page.
