Police in Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT) say officers rescue a 12-year-old girl after an assault is reported near Airport Bridge Taxi Park in Abuja. Police allege the girl was being raped by a man identified as Zayyanu Halilu inside a tinted vehicle. They say the victim is confirmed to be about three months pregnant.
FCT Police spokesperson SP Josephine Adeh gives the account in a public statement, describing the rescue and confirming the pregnancy. The Punch reports the same core details, saying police arrest Halilu after officers catch the alleged abuse at the taxi park and find the girl pregnant as a result of the assault.
Across the outlets, the incident location, the suspect’s name, the use of a tinted vehicle, the victim’s age, and the finding that she is approximately three months pregnant are consistent. The reporting focuses primarily on the arrest and the pregnancy confirmation, without extensive additional details about charges or court proceedings.
