The Emir had been issued an interim court order last week by a Kano high court presided by Justice A.T Badamasi restraining him from demolishing any structures within the palace pending the determination of the case.

A palace source told Saharareporters that an application to end the case has been filed before the court after intervention by elders within the family of the Emir and that of his uncle.
