Zawuyya said preliminary investigation conducted by the commission showed that one of the three girls was from Kaduna state while the two others were from the same family in Zamfara.

The chairman said the commission had warned the management of the hotel several times against harbouring such people but failed to comply with the rules and regulation guiding the operation of hotel business in the state.

The manager of the hotel was also arrested by officials of the Hisbah commission.
