He said he presumed that the prosecutors might charge the culprit to a magistrate court where the new Violence Against Persons Prohibition Act was not applicable.
“So I had to call the police headquarters and complain that why would they be taking my case to a magistrate court instead of the High Court where the VAPP law could be applied. So they had to quickly say that it was a mix-up.” “The VAPP Law has no bail option for a suspect of rape or any form of sexual violence,” Mr Musa said.
The Borno State government domesticated the VAPP Act, which among other things protects women and girls against sexual violence, in February.in Maiduguri also confirmed an attempt to charge the case to a magistrate court.
oh God this is becoming unbecoming
