The applicants averred that Raji-Sulaimon, was a devoted and practising Muslim in his lifetime, performing pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina, had several awards and recognitions by Muslim Societies because of his contributions to the Islamic faith.

They claimed that on January 24, 2021, the family had dug a grave, set up canopies for visitors and concluded funeral arrangements to bury their father according to Islamic rites when the members/representatives of the society forcefully took their father’s body away.

In their application, they accused members of the society of infringement on their rights to privacy and family life and depriving their father of a befitting burial.

The applicants are seeking an order of mandatory injunction compelling the society to return the body forthwith to their custody at the applicants’ Family House being at No 1, Alaye Aba Street, Aba Quarters, Aiyepe, Ogun State.
