Muslim Businessman Suspected of Financing Anti- Christians Activities Arrested in Nigeria

Suspected Sudanese Muslim businessman who chairs a Saudi Arabia-funded charity in connection with financing bloody Islamic attacks on Christians was arrested,

The name of the "Charity fund" is Al-Muntada Al-Islami Trust, directed by Sheik Muhiddeen Abdullahi, the man arrested.

Abdullahi's arrest has stirred up the anger of Sufi Muslims. More than 5,000 Sufi Muslims protested, calling for the immediate closure of Al-Muntada Al-Islami Trust offices and demanding that the Wahhabi sect be banned from the country.

"He was discovered following his financial transactions up to millions dollars running from him to an Islamic fundamentalist cleric in Kano, named Alhaji Sharu," says the police officer.

Most of the funds are donated to Wahhabi sect of Islam in Nigeria to finance a fundamentalist Muslim uprising in December 2003 which left two policemen and a dozen militants dead and thousands of Christians displaced.
