Police in Katsina State have detained Abdulrahman Ibrahim, a 17-year-old senior secondary student, for reportedly killing a guy after stealing his phone.
Ibrahim was one of the 74 suspects displayed on Monday at the Katsina State Police Command headquarters.
Buhari Dahiru, 20, who was characterized as a serial rapist, was also paraded.
Ibrahim, a young boy from Kofar Sauri quarters in Katsina, was reportedly apprehended on April 21, 2023, not long after luring a phone dealer to the Modoji neighbourhood of the city, “where he attacked and stabbed him with a knife on his neck.”
In an interview, Ibrahim claimed that he killed the victim “in self-defense.”
