A nine-year-old girl has been defiled allegedly by a garden egg vendor, Auwalu Abubakar, in Kumbotso LGA of Kano State.
The crime, which happened on November 9, left the victim bedridden for a week before being discharged from the police clinic in Bompai, Kano, where she spent three days on admission.
Speaking on the crime, the victim’s sister, Aisha Auwal, said, “She was first brought back home crying after school hours; that she fell into a drain and sustained injuries.
“I received her and she said she was fine, but later we saw that she was walking abnormally and breathing heavily. We asked her and she refused to say anything.
