Men of the Enugu State Police Command have arrested a 75-year-old man for having sex with a five-year-old girl in the bush.

The suspect, whose name was given as Moses Eze, hails from Azuebo village in Eha-Ndiagu, Eha-Alumona in Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu State.

The septuagenarian is now with the operatives of the state Criminal Investigations Department (CID) in Enugu over his alleged involvement in the defilement of the girl.

Confirming the incident, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Ebere Amarizu, on Saturday said: “The suspect defiled a five-year-old girl after luring her into the bush.”
