The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Gombe State Command has arrested a father and son over the r3pe of a 13-year-old girl.
The Public Relations Officer, SC Buhari Saad, paraded the suspects, Ibrahim Haruna,48, and his 15-year-old son, Abdusalam Ibrahim, at the command’s headquarters in Gombe on Monday, September 1, 2025.
“The second category of people that we have, we have three suspects that are involved in r3pe, gross indecency and defilement. They are, one, Ibrahim Haruna, aged 48, of Jekarifari. He is a tailor by occupation. We also have Abdusalam Ibrahim, aged 15, of Jekadefari,” he said.
“The two people were involved in some acts of rape, gross indecency and defilement.
“It’s now a worrisome pattern; the case of rape is taking place in the state. The father has been committing this act of r3pe at his shop, while the son usually takes his turns at their residence. They took advantage of the young girl who is 13 years old.”
“She happens to be their neighbour who has some mental illness. So they took advantage of her and have been r3ping her serially.”
Also paraded was 72-year-old Balarabe Suleiman, from Yelanguruza, who was alleged to have lured a 13-year-old girl into his car and r3ped her serially.
“He’s been giving her the sum of N200 for every act. And in this instance, it is the lady, the young girl, who became tired of his escapade and informed her parents. The case is still under investigation”, he added
