In the photo above, are two of the three sons of Sheikh Zakzaky; Ali, Hammad and Humaid, who were killed during the Army/Shiite clash in Zaria, Kaduna state on Saturday December 12th.
Sheikh Zakzaky had six sons but has lost 5 to military clash. An additional three were killed last year in an earlier clash with soldiers.
He now has just one son and two daughters left.
Human rights activists at home and abroad are outraged by the actions of the Nigerian military and the refusal of the Federal Government to condemn the act against the Shiítes.
