A man identified as Sunday Michael Ben, has been arrested by the  Akwa Ibom State Police for allegedly defiling his six-year-old daughter.
 
The State Police Commissioner, CP Olatoye Durosinmi, paraded the suspect alongside others at the police headquarters, Ikot Akpanabia, Uyo on Wednesday, August 29, 2023.
 
The suspect, during interrogation, denied the allegation.

“I had my daughter with me in the house, and that night, I woke up to fix my heater that was bad because there was light. I didn’t touch her. I believe my girlfriend, who was with me in the house, committed the act. I only noticed in the morning that she had bloodstains on her leg,” he said.
