A 40-year-old man identified simply as Idi is currently cooling off in one of the cells at the Kano State Police Command for raping a three-year-old girl.
Idi, who lived in the same community as the victim’s parent at Lungun Alhaji Halliru in Gama, Nassarawa Local Government Area of Kano State about a week ago lured the victim Siyama into his room where he sexually assaulted her.
NigeriaCrime.com learned Idi threatened the little girl that if she told her father, he would kill her with scissors and also tell his cat to eat her up, knowing fully well that the little girl was afraid of cats.
However trouble, as gathered, began when Siyama returned home and was about to have her bath when her clothes were taken off, and blood was seen coming out of her body. When asked what happened to her, she said; “It was Idi. He took off my pants, did something to me and gave me sweets and said if I told my father, I will die. Ummah, please don’t tell Abba.”
Siyama further described how he put a pair of scissors on her neck and said he would cut her with it if she told her father.
Sequel to the discovery, Siyama was rushed to the hospital, where the doctors confirmed Penetration.
After the arrest of the suspect Idi, he was taken to the State Criminal Investigation Department, where his statement was taken.
Unfortunately, as soon as the victim saw him in handcuffs, she panicked and screamed: “Umma, he said he would kill me with scissors, why did you tell Abba? He will tell the cat to eat me.”
Since the traumatic encounter, Siyama developed a high fever and as they returned home, the next morning, she died of the trauma of what the man said to her as she kept repeating “he will kill me with scissors.”
Siyama died on Thursday, 29-09-2022 at about 4 p.m.
