Bauchi—Bauchi State High Court yesterday sentenced to death
by hanging Ibrahim Idris, 40, for killing a six-year-old girl after failing in
his attempt to rape her.
Idris was dragged to the court,
presided over by Justice Yelim Bogoro, by the state Director of Public
Prosecution, DPP, Dawud Yakubu, who charged him with culpable homicide, an
offence contrary to section 221 of the state law.
Dawud told the court that on
September 14, 2012, the accused called the deceased, Asiya Mohammed, into his
room with the intention to rape her.
He said when she refused, he used a
knife to sever her head, put it in a polythene bag and threw it into a water
channel.
He said the body of the deceased was
recovered and taken to General Hospital, Darazo, for post-mortem examination
before it was later handed over to her parents for burial.
He called five witnesses and
presented the axe and knife the accused used to cut the head of the deceased as
exhibits and the witnesses testified that he made a confessional statement.
In her judgement, Justice Bogoro
said the confessional statement of the accused was direct, adding that the
prosecutor proved his case beyond all reasonable doubt and sentenced the
accused to death by hanging.
