Police arrest suspected rapist in Minna
The Niger Police Command on Monday said it had arrested the 29-year-old man (names withheld), who allegedly raped a minor.
The command’s spokesman, DSP Mohammadu Abubakar, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Minna.
Abubakar alleged that the suspect, who resides in the same Barkin-Sale area of Minna with the 11-year-old girl, lured her into his room.
He alleged that preliminary investigation had established that the suspect had canal knowledge of the girl.
Abubakar said that the suspect would be charged to court after the conclusion of investigation.
He, however, appealed to parents to always monitor those associating with their children, to prevent girls from sexual abuse.
