He said: “We found her around some minutes past 7:00 am. She was sitting outside without a dress. We asked her series of questions but she could not talk but appeared to hear what people were saying.
“I called some people to help me ask the girl why she was sitting in front of an uncompleted building without wearing clothes. When we discovered that she was traumatized, we alerted (our) members and called the commander to call the DPO Yelwa division.
“Fortunately, we got the DPO who sent some personnel and took the girl into protective custody for further investigation. Based on assessment, we are suspecting a rape case but we can’t ascertain that yet.
“On her skirt there appeared to be sign of drops of sperm or something like that, and the bruises on her neck showed something happened to her.”
However, the police spokesman of Bauchi Command, Ahmed Wakil, said he could not confirm whether the girl was raped, stressing that he got a report that the girl usually runs away from home.
His words: “When I got the report, I sent our men to the scene. Incidentally, immediately the girl came to the station, the DPO sighted her and recognised her. She is an imbecile. What usually happens is that she leaves the house without the consent of her parents.

“I was not there (at the police station) and I did not see any (drop) of sperm but what I have given is the report that the DPO sent to me. But I want you to interview the father. If you feel you are concerned enough about the girl, call back and I will confirm the story.” Arewa Voice called her ‘father’ on phone with the number that was given by the police spokesman, but the owner of the number did not pick his phone.
