A piece of sad and shocking news that has gone viral on the internet has it that the youths in the Igabi Local Government Area in Kaduna State have rescued a 10-year-old girl who was gang raped by five men including her aunt’s husband.

According to Hajiya Rabi,

“The girl reported to her mother when she started seeing blood in her urine and the mother warned the sister’s husband to stay away from her.

“However, since the girl continued to hawk, in the process, she met a man selling fairly-used clothes in the market, who bought her a school sandal and also began abusing her.

“Subsequently, a bakery owner also joined the queue after buying cooked rice that she was hawking. At the end of the day, about five men were sexually exploiting her.”

She also revealed that the girl has been taken to the hospital for medical checks and bruises while four of the suspects have been apprehended by the police.

“We don’t know where the victim’s mother is at the moment, but her father is disabled and cannot move.

The arrest was confirmed by the Kaduna State Police Command spokesperon,  ASP Mohammed Jalige who also added that two of the suspects have already confessed to the crime.
