Unbelievable! Read What 32-Year-Old Man Did To His 3-Year-Old Daughter

A 32-year-old man has been arrested by the Plateau state police command for allegedly raping his three-year-old daughter.

The man, identified only as Mustapha, was said have committed the act on January 12, in the Katako area of the state while the victim’s mother was cooking in a makeshift kitchen within their compound.

According to The Punch, the woman had gone into the room to pick some ingredients for the dish she was preparing when she caught her husband in the act.

She immediately alerted neighbours who descended heavily on Mustapha.

He was, however, rescued by policemen from Laranto division who were alerted and intervened in the matter.

Speaking to the newspaper, a source on condition of anonymity said she informed a non-governmental organisation, Voice for the Girl Foundation, who took custody of the girl.

She said: “I was very shocked when I heard about the incident. The mother was cooking outside that evening. She went in to take something in the house and she met her husband having sex with their daughter. She raised the alarm, and everybody that rushed into their premises was surprised too. I called a social worker, who took the girl to a hospital. The man was beaten by some angry youths in the community before the police came to rescue him.”

The director of the foundation, Mildred Bako, said the three-year-old girl (name withheld) was taken to a hospital, where a medical test conducted on her revealed that her hymen was ruptured.

According to Bako, Mustapha could not give any genuine reason when he was asked what prompted him to commit the act.

She said: “It was a friend that notified me about the incident. I went there and took the girl. The man was unable to give any genuine explanation. He just said it was the work of the devil. We took the girl to a private hospital and the doctor’s report confirmed that her hymen is broken. For now, the mother is not happy about the whole thing and she has said she is no more interested in the marriage for now. We want justice in the case. We do not want the matter to be swept under the carpet.”

DSP Abuh Emmanuel, the Plateau state police public relations officer, also confirmed Mustapha’s arrest. According to Emmanuel, Mustapha had confessed to the crime and he will be charged to court at the end of the investigation.

He said: “We received a report that the suspect defiled a three-year-old girl and the suspect was arrested immediately. The suspect has confessed to the crime and investigation has commenced. The victim was taken to the hospital for treatment. As soon as the investigation is concluded, he will be charged to court.”

In the same vein, a 32-year-old man, Tope Thomas, was recently arraigned before an Ikeja magistrates court, Lagos, on a two-count charge of defilement and causing the breach of peace for allegedly defiling his neighbour’s three-year-old girl.

Police Prosecutor, Sgt. Jimah Iseghede, told the court that the accused committed the offence on August 28, 2015 at his residence. The accused, Iseghede said, invited the three-year-old girl to the toilet and raped her. He added that the victim’s mother, who heard the daughter crying, rushed to the scene and found the accused raping the little girl.
