THE State Hisbah Board has arrested 78 persons who attended an overnight party in the state for alleged acts of immorality and indecent dressing.
The partygoers were arrested during a raid of an event centre, White House in the Nasarawa GRA last weekend.
The Director-General of the Hisbah Board, Harun Ibn Sina, told journalists yesterday that the youths were not arrested for conducting same-s3x marriage contrary to reports in some quarters.
He said: “When we received the report, we went there and could not establish the fact that they were holding same-s3x marriage but we caught them in a highly immoral situation both the males and females.”
He said the suspects claimed they were celebrating their friend’s birthday.
