A 28-year-old security guard, Shehu Yusuf, on Wednesday appeared in a Gudu Upper Area Court for alleged gross indecent act towards a 10-year-old girl.
Yusuf, a resident of Wuye, Abuja, was allegedly caught dipping his finger into the girl’s vagina without her consent.
Prosecutor, Urom Out told the court that one Aisha Mohammed of Wuye, Abuja, reported the matter at the Wuye police station on Dec. 27.

His Counsel, Missa Akintola, applied for his bail, stressing that the accused was still innocent until proven guilty.
The judge, Alhaji Umar Kagarko, granted bail to the accused in the sum of N100, 000 with one reliable surety who must reside within the court’s jurisdiction.
Kagarko also ordered the police to verify the residence of the surety and investigate the claimed stolen property.
He added that the police should submit the reports of their investigations to the court on Jan. 12.
He adjourned the case till Feb. 24, for hearing.
