Buguwa, who resides at Aljannaru village in Song Local Government Area, where he committed the crime, said, “After drinking a gin known as voltage on that fateful day, I lay down, and the little girl came and started playing on my body. I raped her because I could not resist the urge for sex.”
The suspect who was said to be married and his wife was pregnant, was reportedly caught in the act by the little girl’s elder sister, who raised an alarm that prompted a crowd of angry neighbours to grab him and hand him over to the police.
