The Katsina Police Command has arrested a man for allegedly drugging and abducting a married woman for a period of 5 months.
The spokesperson of the command, Isah Gambo disclosed to newsmen at a briefing that the suspect identified as Surajo Dauda and a resident of Danja local government area of the state, confessed to the crime, adding that the woman was his girlfriend who had turned down his marriage proposal.
The Police said Dauda drugged the woman and kept her in a room he rented in Abuja and continued to rape her for five months before releasing her.
According to the perpetrator, “I put D5 in her drink and she became unconscious then I took her away, hired an apartment where I kept her. Whenever I am going out, I will lock her inside.
“I was forced to beat her up on one occasion after the incident; so I decided to send her back to the village.
“So I planned with one of my friends to call her husband and tell him that we are kidnappers and we have his wife in our custody. He can come for her if he wants,” Dauda said.
