In Katsina, northwestern Nigeria, a rape accused has turned an accuser.<\/p>\n

The suspected rapist, Alhaji Mu\u2019awiyah Sabe, sued his alleged victim, a 20-year-old woman to a Shariah Court for alleged defamation of character.<\/p>\n

Counsel to the defendant, Malam Kabiru Yanlilo, said that his client was impregnated by the complainant, after raping her in his residence at Ambassador Quarters, Kaita Road in the town.<\/p>\n

Yanlilo said that the act was committed about three months ago.<\/p>\n

He said that the suspect was his client\u2019s suitor and that they were about to get married when the offence was committed.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019He invited my client to his house to meet his wife but on reaching the house, she observed that there was no woman inside.<\/p>\n

“He told her that his wife went to their neighbour\u2019s compound for weaving. He even used his phone to call a woman, whom he said was his wife and asked my client to speak with her.<\/p>\n

“The woman asked her to wait for a while as she was on her way back home,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Yanlilo added that, while his client was waiting, he asked her to eat a piece of meat and drink fruit juice.<\/p>\n

He said that initially, his client refused to take the drink but because of his insistence, she ate the meat and drank the juice.<\/p>\n

Yanlilo said that shortly after she took the piece of meat and drank the juice, his client became unconscious and Sabe raped her.<\/p>\n

He added that after she regained consciousness, the lady saw Sabe sitting beside her and smoking cigarette.<\/p>\n

Yanlilo said Sabe gave the woman N500 and asked her to go home.<\/p>\n

Following the incident, she missed her menstruation and when she informed him, he said that he would do something about it, Yanlilo said.<\/p>\n

He said that after about two months, Sabe dragged “my client to court for allegedly accusing him of being responsible for the pregnancy\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n

The case would come up on May 9 for mention.<\/p>\n
