Woman arrested for pouring hot water on 11-year-old daughter in Osun

Operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Osun State have arrested a woman for pouring hot water on her 11-year-old daughter.

The state Commandant of the corps, Emmanuel Ocheja, disclosed this on Friday while parading the woman and several other crime suspects at the headquarters in Osogbo.

The suspect said it was not deliberate as she didn’t know what came over her.

Giving her own account of the story, the victim explained that she was being punished for misplacing a key.

The PPRO, however informed that investigations are ongoing and the matter will be charged to court soon.

Another suspect, 44-year-old Amos Danbaba Galadima was also paraded for illegal mining in Ita-Obi community in Ilesha, as well as one Abdulrahmon Ibrahim who was arrested in Kano for alleged stealing of a car.
