A 70 years old papa identified as Mohammed Sani Umar a.k.a Tela was said to have defiled a little girl identified as Amina Mahmud of about 8 years of age in Chanchaga area of Minna, Niger state.
The suspect Mohammed Sani Umar went further to say that he had carnal knowledge of the little girl two times because of the love he have for her. He admitted to this very act before a magistrate court.
According to the mother of the victim:
She was sick for some weeks and after every treatment, she was still not very well. Then, a neighbour advised her mother to keep a close watch on the girl, which the mother started doing. After some days, she saw some stains on her underwear and asked her what happened to her.
“The little girl took the mother to his place and on reaching there, she just pointed at him. On sighting the woman and the girl, he started begging them to cover it up so he will take responsibility,” Abubakar, the girl’s uncle, narrated.
The mother to the little girl noticed the strange behaviour of her little daughter which prompted her to question her before she openly exposed the man who defiled her. This led to the arrest of the suspect as stated earlier.
The magistrate following the request of the prosecution, adjourned the case until July 23 and ordered the suspect to be detained at the Minna new prison.
