A devastating case unfolded in Kano State High Court on monday, as 43-year-old Mannir Ibrahim-Abdullahi was remanded in a correctional center for allegedly raping a minor to death.

The prosecution counsel, Lamido Abba-Sorondinki, revealed that the defendant committed the heinous crime on August 1 at Jaba Panisau Quarters, Kano.

The victim’s father had taken the minor to Ibrahim-Abdullahi’s pharmacy, Waraka Chemist, seeking treatment for malaria. Tragically, the defendant allegedly exploited this trust, leading to unimaginable consequences.

Justice Zuwaira Yusuf, presiding over the case, ordered Ibrahim-Abdullahi’s remand until December 9 for a hearing. The defendant, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.

The allegations contravene Sections 221 and 283 of the Penal Code.
