Zazzau Emirate Council, Kaduna State, has sacked a palace guard, Sama’ila Abubakar Rimin Tsiwa, for allegedly raping a lady.
The Media and Publicity Officer of the Emir, Abdullahi KwarbaI, in a statement sent to Newsbreak.ng on Wednesday, said Tsiwa has been dismissed with immediate effect.
According to the statement, the incident happened when the guard lured the lady, who was preparing for a wedding and came to seek assistance from the Emir, Malam Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli through him.
Kwarbai said instead of Rimin Tsiwa taking the lady to the Emir, he lured her to a location where he and his friends gang-raped her.
Furthermore, the statement disclosed that the council had directed the police to speed up investigations and ensure the prosecution of the culprits.
It promised to follow up on the case to ensure justice was served.
