The Nigeria Security and
Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Borno on Thursday, arrested a 40-year-old man
for allegedly taking hostage and raping an Internally Displaced Person (IDP),
for two days.
“The suspect held the victim
hostage for two days in his house. After intensive search by the command, the
girl was later found with the culprit,” Ibrahim said.
He said that the suspect was
arrested in Dala area of the state capital.
He said that the suspect
lured the victim with some money and took her to a house in Colori ward behind
the NNPC quarters, where he raped her.
The commandant condemned the
increasing rate of domestic abuses ranging from defilement to rape,in the
state.
“The culprits usually take
advantage of the poor living condition of their victims and abuse them.
“We are, therefore,
appealing to all good citizens of Borno to always report any suspicious
activities that can cause havoc in the society,’’ said Ibrahim.
