A man who lured and impregnated a deaf and dumb girl has been remanded by a sharia court at Rigasa in Kaduna.
The man who makes a living as a firewood cutter and is identified as Samaila Bala has pleaded guilty to the offence. The victim’s name is Bilkisu Usman.
The Judge, Malam Salisu Abubakar-Tureta said the court would pass judgment on Aug. 30 and ruled that the defendant should be remanded until that date.
Earlier, Bala said he adored the 18-year-old-girl and gave her N200 whenever they meet.
The prosecution counsel said one Fatima Hussaini, the mother to the girl, reported the matter at the Rigasa Police Division on Aug. 7, alleging that Bala misled her daughter into the act.
The prosecution alleged that the defendant took the girl to an uncompleted building and had sex with her, which resulted to her pregnancy.
