A 33-year-old man, Danladi Ibrahim, man has been arrested for having unlawful carnal knowledge of his 10-year-old daughter in Nasaru Village in Ningi Local Government Area of Bauchi State.

He was arrested by detectives attached to the Ningi Divisional Headquarters.

The suspect was said to have lured the minor with a lemon drink which is believed to have been mixed with an intoxicant.

“As a result, the victim sustained serious internal injuries in her private part and bleeding.

“On receipt of the report, a team of detectives led by the DPO swiftly rushed to the scene, evacuated the victim to the General Hospital Ningi for immediate medical attention.

In the statement, it read, “The suspect Danladi Ibrahim was arrested. During interrogation, the suspect voluntarily confessed to have committed the crime.
