Man, 50, defiles neighbour’s 6-year-old daughter in Kaduna


A six-year-old girl (name withheld) has been allegedly defiled by a 50-year-old man, Ibrahim, who lives next to her parents, at Hanyi Danmani village in Kaduna South local government area of Kaduna state.
This came a few months after two six-year-old girls were separately raped to death in similar circumstances in Kurmi Mashi, a community not far from Hanyi Danmani.
The latest victim was however lucky to be alive unlike her two age mates, who were raped, killed and dumped at a mosque and graveyard on Sunday, June 28 and Monday, November 9, 2020 respectively. 


As at the time of filing this report, both the Kaduna State Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs and Kaduna State Police Command were yet to apprehend the suspected serial rapists who raped and killed the two girls in separate incidences.


Confirming the latest development through a phone call on Monday, the Mai Ungwan (Village Head) of Hanyi Danmasani, Malam Umar Ibrahim said the girl was recuperating from bruises she sustained during the defilement by her parents’ neighbour simply identified as Ibrahim.
According to him, “it is true. The case is in Rigasa Police station. But this morning they told me that they are trying to transfer the case to the state Criminal Investigation Department (CID).


“The rape case involved a girl of about six-year-old girl and that man is about 50-year-old. He has his family with two wives. He has his own house as a neighbour to the parents of this girl.


“It happened on Friday but Police then said they should come by Monday. So today, the community went there as instructed. 
“I was told that the police are done with the hospital report and they are now transferring the case to the CID. According to the mother, it was a very horrible face but she said her daughter is responding to treatment.


Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Mohammed Jalige, could not be reached for comment as he did not answer phone calls put to him, while he has yet to return the call as at the time of filing this report.
