A 32 years old Carpenter, Defiles 6 Years-Old Girl in Kaduna State
The operatives
of the Kaduna State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps
(NSCDC) have arrested a 32-year-old carpenter for allegedly defiling a
six-year-old girl.
According to the report, the suspect
was arrested at Bayan-Dutse in Chikun Local Government Area on April 21 by
members of Quick Response Unit of the command. It is believed that the suspect
took advantage of the familiarity established with the victim’s family to carry
out the dastardly act.
The NSDC Public Relations Officer in
the state, ASC Orndiir Terzungwe, disclosed this on Wednesday in a statement,
saying the victim was reported to have been raped in the bathroom of the rented
apartment she resides in with her aunt.
One of the victim’s aunts, who was
first to know about the unfortunate incident, said she knew about it after the
harm was carried out and the victim was even moved away from the scene.
“When I first learned of the ugly
incident, I was misinformed about it that she fell in a gutter because I saw
blood on her cheeks and it was being washed by the suspect who held her and was
pretending to be cleaning it by a gutter. “But after a critical check on her
body, I discovered blood on her laps,” her aunt narrated.
She continued, “When we prevailed on
her, she opened up that one man forcefully took her into the bathroom and slept
with her with strong warning for her not to disclose it to anyone, else she
will die.”
The state
Commandant, Babangida Abdullahi Dutsinma has directed a thorough investigation
into the matter after which the suspect would be charged to court.
