A Chief Magistrates’ Court in Kaduna on Thursday ordered that a 25-year-old man, Hassan Yusuf, who allegedly defiled a seven-year-old girl be remanded in a correctional centre pending legal advice.
Magistrate Ibrahim Emmanuel, who did not take the plea of Yusuf, ordered the police to duplicate the case file and send same to the office of the Kaduna Director of Public Prosecutions for advice.
Emmanuel who frowned at the high rate of rape of minors, adjourned the case until May. 16, for hearing.
