The Anti-Crime Unit in Jabang on Sunday arrested a Nigerian man for “attempting” to rape an 8-year-old girl in one of the neighbourhoods of the fast-growing settlement, reports reaching JollofNews intimated.
Sources said the man lured the child and then inserted his fingers into her private part multiple times.
“The suspect has been transferred to Latriya police station,” a Jabang resident informed JollofNews.
The arrest of the Nigerian man in Jabang by the Anti-Crime Unit of the Gambia Police Force followed the rescue nearly two months ago of a Gambian-born Nigerian boy by the unit after he was subjected to various forms of abuse in the hands of his father, who was a single parent.
