38-Year-Old Islamic Teacher Remanded Over Alleged Def+lement of Two Min%rs During Quranic Classes

An Islamic scholar in Adamawa State, 38-year-old Sagir Sani, has been accused of def+ling two fem@le students aged 8 and 9.

Sani, who teaches at an Islamic school in Numan Local Government Area, allegedly took the two girls behind the school’s classrooms, where he reportedly s+xually assa¥lted them.

According to the prosecuting police officer, ASP Zakka Musa, the teacher allegedly l¥red the victims to the secluded area before committing the offences.

Sani was subsequently arraigned before Chief Magistrate’s Court I in Yola on charges including indecent treatment, s+xual assa¥lt and def+lement. The court ordered that he be remanded over the allegations.

The police prosecutor informed the court on Monday that the mother of one of the alleged victims reported the incident at the Divisional Police Headquarters in Numan on August 7, 2026.

According to the prosecutor, the woman alleged that the defendant, 38-year-old Sagir Sani, defiled the two girls while they were attending Quranic recitation classes.

When the charges were read and explained to Sani during his arraignment, he pleaded not guilty to the allegations.

Following his plea, the prosecuting police officer requested an adjournment to allow the prosecution to forward the case diary to the state Department of Public Prosecutions for legal advice.

The court granted the application and ordered that Sani be remanded pending further proceedings.
