“The victim was reported to have been raped in a bathroom where she resides in a rented apartment with her aunt.

Narrating the incident, the victim's aunt said;
“When I first learned of the ugly incident, I was misinformed that she fell in a gutter because I saw blood on her cheeks and it was being washed by the suspect, who held her and was pretending to be cleaning her.

“But after a critical check on her body, I discovered blood on her laps. When we prevailed on her, she opened up, that one man forcefully took her into the bathroom and slept with her with strong warning to her not to disclose it to anyone, else she will die.”

Terzungwe disclosed that the State Commandant, Babangida Dutsinma, had directed a rigorous investigation into the matter and subsequently charge the suspect to Court.
