The Bauchi State Police Command has arrested a 40-year-old woman, Fatimah Ibrahim, for allegedly raping a 12-year- old boy at Tashan Jama’are, Katagum Local Government Area of the state.
The command’s Public Relations Officer, CSP Ahmed Wakil, who disclosed this in a statement, said “On March 1, 2025, at about 14:00 hours, a concerned citizen from Katagum Local Government Area reported a serious incident to the Divisional Police Headquarters in Azare.
Wakil explained that the report implicated Fatimah Ibrahim, a 40-year-old resident of Tashan Jama’are, in a troubling case involving a 12-year-old boy, Abubakar Yakubu (not his real name), who had been employed to assist in her business.
Wakil said, “The victim, an Arabic pupil, was reportedly housed at the defendant’s residence, where he was subjected to inappropriate conducts for over two months. During an interview, the victim described how the defendant, who he trusted as a maternal figure, engaged him in acts of a sexual nature, especially when her other visitors were not present.

Wakil continues, “He recounted being given a mixture involving lemon juice, which he believes may have been tampered with before these incidents occurred. The victim indicated that he had been subjected to such behaviour on multiple occasions.’’
Wakil added that during the subsequent interrogation, the defendant admitted the allegations.
He said the investigation was ongoing and that once completed, the suspect would undergo profiling and would be charged to court.
