Four persons were yesterday arrested by Jigawa State command of Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, for committing sodomy with a 16-year-old boy, Umar Sani, in Taura Local Government Area.
According to the boy, the suspects who reside in the same local government, defiled him at different locations within their community and threatened to kill him if he tells anybody.
Umar, who personally lodged a complaint with the state command of NSCDC, said he decided to
report the matter because he could no longer stand the abuse from the quartet.
The boy informed the command that the four men had been abusing him sexually for over 2 years at different locations, and lamented that he could not even tell his parents because of fear.
The state Commandant of the NSCDC, Dr. Muhammed Gidado, said the report of the young boy was verified when he was taken to a hospital for medical examination, adding that the result proved that he had been abused sexually.
Similarly, he said the suspects, Auwalu Idris, 41; Nazifi Abba, 25; Abdullahi Rabiu, 28; and Abu Zaid Yusu, 18, were arrested by NSCDC officers.
He said after hours of interrogation, the suspects admitted committing the crime, pleading that it was the work of the devil.
Gidado disclosed that the command had already taken the four suspects to a Magistrate’s Court in Kiyawa Local Government Area for prosecution.
He condemned the act in strong terms, saying such evil acts had no place in Jigawa State, and warned that anyone who indulged in such acts would be made to face the wrath of the law.
