“She came back to the room and met the daughter lying down unconscious, sweating and vomiting through her mouth, nose and her private part was swollen.”

Wakil explained that a team of detectives were drafted to the scene, took the victim to the General Hospital, Kirfi for medical attention and on examination it was found out that the girl has been raped.

He said the girl’s father, who was the suspect, was arrested and would be charged to court.

He further urged the citizens to support and provide the police with relevant information in order to re-invigorate community policing aimed at reducing crime to the barest minimum in the state.
