A 25-year old housewife, Fatima Ibrahim, on Monday appeared before a Katsina Chief Magistrates’ Court over the alleged abduction of a day-old baby.

Ibrahim, who resides at Danja town in Katsina State, committed the offence at about 5.00 a.m. on March 10.
The prosecutor, Insp. Hashimu Musa, told the court that the case was reported to the Central Police Station, by one Malam Nuhu Umar of Funtua town.

Musa said the complainant informed the police that the accused abducted the baby at about 5.00 a.m.
He said the offence was committed at the comprehensive Health Centre, Funtua, while the staff on duty had gone to say their morning prayers.
Musa alleged that the accused went away with the baby, under the pretence of assisting the nursing mother.

He said the accused, while leaving the hospital, dropped her hospital card bearing Fatima Ibrahim.
Musa said that during investigation, the card left by the accused was used to trace her and rescue the baby from her.
“When interrogated by the police, the accused confessed to have abducted the baby girl.
“The case was transferred from Funtua Division to the State Criminal Investigation Department, for further investigation,’’ he said.
The prosecutor said that the accused committed an offence, contrary to Section 274 of the Penal Code.

The Chief Magistrate, Hajiya Nafisa Bagiwa, said that the court would not take the plea of the accused, as her case was very serious.
Bagiwa ordered the police to continue with the investigation, while the case file should be duplicated and forwarded to the State Ministry of Justice, for advice.
She adjourned the case to May 7, for continuation of trial. (NAN)
