A barber in Warri, Delta State has been arrested by the police for allegedly defiling an underaged girl of ten years old last weekend.
NewsNet Nigeria gathered that the saloon of the barber (names withheld) is located at Urhobo road junction along Cemetery Road Warri.
The popular barber who hails from the South Eastern part of Nigeria and whose barbing saloon is in an upstairs at the said junction, was alleged to have lured the unsuspecting little girl into his shop pretending to want to send her on an errand.
The barber it was learnt allegedly had the canal knowledge of the underaged girl behind closed doors in his barbing saloon.
The underaged girl was said to have sustained bruises in her private part in the unholy encounter.
It was gathered also that the little girl wasted no time in reporting her sexual bout with the ‘shameless’ barber when she could not bear the pains in her private part.
Angered by the sexual assault on their daughter, the parents it was gathered, immediately reported the matter to the police who did the needful.
The matter got worst for the baby after the police arrest, as leaders of the community where the barbing saloon was located were said to have put the barber’s saloon door under key and lock.
The door of the barber’s saloon was still locked at the time of filing this report.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Delta State Police Command, DSP Bright Edafe, confirmed the incident.
