The procession of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), on Friday was disrupted by the police around Bannex Plaza, Wuse in Abuja.
They gathered to demand the release of their leader Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, who is still held by the Department of State Services.
Eyewitnesses say the police fired teargas and shot in the air forcing the Shi’ites and passers-by to scamper for safety.
