“A complainant came to our office concerning the case which has to do with his daughter. The incident which concerns a driver named Ahmed Muktar and his cronies happened around Nyanya-Mararaba in Karu Local Government Area.
“The prime suspect, Muntari AKA Uzor, lured his victim, one Fatima Ibrahim (f) 19yrs into his vehicle and whisked her to an unknown location in Jos Plateau State, where he threatened, molested and raped her severally. He later took her back to Lafia, the Nasarawa State capital and handed her over o one Dahiru Ibrahim who also raped the victim. The prime suspect later took her back to Jos Plateau State where he handed her again to one Isah Nasiru who also molested and raped her.
“It was as a result of the victim narrating her ordeal to someone in Lafia that Dahiru Ibrahim was arrested and other suspects too after trailing the prime suspect who is a driver, both in Mararaba Nyanaya axis and Jos. He was finally arrested in Jos and transported to the state Command, of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Nasarawa state Command, Lafia.

According to her, “Om my way going to my friend’s house, Muktar stopped me and convinced me that he would drop me off at my friend’s place. I entered his Sharon vehicle, then after a few minutes, I slept off only to find myself in an unknown location. He took me to a place where I stayed for 21 days. He and some other guys had sex with me severally before he returned me back to Lafia”
Fatim’s father, Alhaji Ibrahim thanked the NSCDC for arresting the suspects and said he was going to to do everything wiring his power to ensure they face the wrath of the law for the harrowing experience they subjected his daughter to.
