A soldier has been dismissed, sentenced to five years imprisonment after defiling a 13-year-old girl.
The Seven Division of General Court Martial of Operation Lafiya Dole has dismissed and sentenced a corporal to five years imprisonment for assaulting and defiling a 13-year-old girl.
Cpl Aliyu Yakubu allegedly committed the offence on July 1, 2018 while serving in 202 Battalion in Bama Local Government Area of Borno State.
He was accused of having carnal knowledge of the 13-year-old girl in an uncompleted building after forcefully hitting her head against the wall until she lost consciousness.
The corporal who was sentenced today September 30 after two years of investigation and trial, was found guilty of both charges based on the evidence tendered before the court.
The judgement is however subject to confirmation by a confirming authority as the military high command will still have to confirm the judgement.
