Danladi Wari, a 65-year-old man who was detained for allegedly defiling a nine-year-old girl, blames the victim for his actions.
The male confessed to the authorities that the girl seduced him into having sexual contact with her through her touch.
The Adamawa State Police Command stated on Sunday that police officers arrested the man at his residence in Gangaraso, Jada Local Government Area, on May 23, 2023. The man persisted that the girl followed him into his chamber and seduced him into mating with her.
According to the State Police Public Relations Officer, Suleiman Nguroje, the man claimed that the girl had demanded N200 from him, which he had refused to give her, but that he had sewn for free some clothing she had brought to him.
The suspect was apprehended, according to Nguroje, after the girl’s family filed a police report.
The man would be prosecuted in accordance with the law, he guaranteed.
