BREAKING NEWS, Crime
A 12-year-old boy, identified as Aminu, has died after he was allegedly sexually abused by one Abubakar, a tea seller in Ngwayanma, in the Kontagora area of Niger State.
Abubakar abducted Aminu from his parents’ in March, held him hostage in his apartment and allegedly had anal sex with the boy for two weeks, until the victim fell ill.
A neighbour raised the alarm and reported the case to the police at the Kontagora division.
Abubakar was arrested, but the boy later died in the hospital he was admitted.
A resident told newsmen that “The boy’s parents suddenly discovered that he was missing and asked for his whereabouts from his friends, who denied knowledge of his whereabouts. Afterwards, a case of abduction was reported to the police. That was early March.
“A man alerted us two weeks later that he saw Aminu with Maishai (Abubakar). The suspect initially denied that the boy was in his custody. The boy was later found in his apartment in a critical condition. He looked tired and pale. Maishai confessed he had sex with him several times.
“The police were called to arrest him and Aminu was rushed to a hospital. He eventually died last week. The parents do not want to talk about the incident for now; they are devastated.”
Niger State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Elkana James, confirmed Aminu’s death, saying that the case had been transferred to the command headquarters in Minna. — THE AUTHORITY
