Adam Center for Defending Human Rights and Freedoms condemned in a statement the Shia carnage committed by the Nigerian Army against Shia civilians, calling on opening international investigation on the crime.

The statement said that although Nigerian authorities are aware of the organized targeting against Shias by Takifiri groups, a senior leader in the Nigerian Army committed a crime that is worse than Boko Haram’s crimes.

Adam Center has also urged the Nigerian government to launch a credible and transparent probe.

This is while Takfiri Boko Haram terrorists have also targeted Shia Muslims in Nigeria. More than 20 people were killed on November 27, when a bomb attack struck an annual religious procession in the northern state of Kano. Boko Haram terrorists later claimed responsibility.
