A weekly report issued by the “Unity-Yekiti” party had indicated on January 4, that the militias of “Sultan Suleiman Shah-Al-Amshahat” continued to dig inside the old / lower mosque, in the center of the “Shieh / Sheikh Al-Hadid” district.
The report said that the excavation site has been covered with signs to conceal what is going on in it, in search of precious finds and treasures, as it is known that the mosque’s land and houses south of it contain ancient ruins.
