Three men have been arraigned at a Kontagora
High Court - they were alleged to have raped a 14-year-old girl in Kontagora
town, which contradicts Sections 79, 83 and 283 of the Penal Code.
Chief counsel, Ahmed
Attahiru, had tendered an application for motion on notice to add one more
witness in the case and therefore prayed for additional 30days for the case to
continue.
Joseph Usman, holding brief for counsel to the
accused, did not raise an objection to the plea.
The presiding judge, Justice Yusuf Tanko,
therefore adjourned further hearing in the case till September 10.
