53 year man gets 1 year jail term for s*xually assaulting 9yr old girl

 

 The Federal High Court in Kano has sentenced one Ado Danjuma, 53, to three years imprisonment for abducting a nine-year-old girl and sex*ally molesting her. The prosecution counsel, Aondona Orti, told the court that the convict had on February 2, 2011, lured the victim to a shop where he worked as a security man.

 "He inserted his finger into the private part of the nine-year old girl, touched her buttocks and later asked her to go," said Orti. He said the police arrested the convict at his duty post after the girl went home and narrated what happened to her parents.

 When the charge was read to Danjuma, he pleaded guilty and asked for leniency as he had five children and a pregnant wife. The trial judge, Justice Shehu Yahaya, sentenced him to two years imprisonment without the option of a fine on first count of taking custody of the girl without the consent of her lawful guardians; and also sentenced him to one year imprisonment for having carnal knowledge of the girl contrary to the Trafficking in Persons Act 2003. The two sentences will run concurrently.
