Ahmed Wakil, the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, in the state, confirmed the incident on Saturday, June 3, 2023, saying the victim’s father reported the case at the divisional police headquarters in Ningi.

The victim reportedly sustained severe internal injuries as a result of the assault, causing her to bleed.

The victim sustained serious internal injuries in her private part and is bleeding.”
