“Reporting the case at the command’s headquarters in Ilorin, the victim stated that the suspect has been s3xually assaulting her since November 2023, particularly on Sundays when there are no other occupants at home.
“She also revealed that the suspect threatened to harm her if she ever disclosed the illicit act to anyone.

Also speaking, the State Commandant, Umar J. G. Mohammed, expressed dismay over the alarming increase in cases of r*pe and defilement of minors, emphasizing that perpetrators of such heinous acts would face severe consequences for their actions.
