Operatives of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, #NAPTIP, have arrested a 62-year-old man in KanoState for chaining and locking up 16-year-old daughter, Binta, for rejecting forced marriage.

The suspect, Muhammad Ujujud, locked Binta up as punishment for refusing to accept a husband he forced on her. It was gathered that the man also locked his son, Shehu, in a separate cell in his house. Unfortunately, the boy died in detention recently.

According to the information gathered, a member of the community who secretly leaked the story explained that the man was notorious for meting out corporal punishment on his family and he was dreaded in the village.
