Police nabs a 17-year-old wife for stabbing husband to death

The Bauchi State Police Command has paraded a 17-year-old wife, Salma Hassan, for stabbing her husband, Mohammed Mustapha to death.
Hassan, who hails from Itas Gadau Local Government Area of Bauchi, admitted stabbing her husband, to death with a knife for attempting to have sex with her without her consent.
The suspect told journalists that she stabbed her husband with a knife because she was beaten up by him for not allowing him to have sex with her eleven days after they got married.
“I never knew that sex is a marital obligation. On that fateful night when he approached me for sex, I refused him because I have never been involved in it. I thought he wanted to defile me.
“He later got angry and was trying to force himself on me with slaps and beating, then I picked up a knife to scare him away but he kept coming. I didn’t know when I stabbed him with the knife in his chest”, she stated.
