It was learnt that the suspect used to invite the boy into his house whenever his wife was not around.
The spokesman of the command, Adamu Shehu, said, “The illicit affair was uncovered when the boy’s school principal observed that the amount of money in his possession was too much for his spending and called the attention of his parents.
“According to him, he engaged the 11-year-old thrice. But the boy stated the sodomy was more than three times as the suspect engaged him in different places and in turn gave him money, milk, candy, biscuits and wristwatch among others.”
Shehu added that a medical report obtained from the Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC) at General Hospital, Dutse showed bruises on the rectum and loose sphincter, which indicated repeated anal penetration.
He said the suspect had admitted to the crime and would be charged to court.
