According to her, when she woke up to breastfeed the baby, she noticed blood in her private part.
“I informed my husband about the matter; he started weeping saying that some people will start accusing him.
“In the morning, while I was washing the baby’s clothes, he also brought his trouser for me wash and I noticed blood stains on it.
“He later went to bush and brought me some leaves to treat her, saying that it is pile.
“The baby was later taken to Malumfashi General Hospital where the doctor confirmed to us that she was defiled and informed the police.
Zeenat separated from the father of the baby, and married Dansale.
