36-year-old lecturer, Ali Shehu, was on Tuesday remanded in prison custody over breach of trust and sexually harassing his female student by a Chief Magistrates’ Court sitting in Kano.
The accused, a lecturer of Kano State School of Technology, is facing trial on a two-count charge of breach of official trust and attempt to commit an offence, contrary to Sections 95 and 98 of the Penal Code.
Chief Magistrate Muhammad Idris ordered the remand of the accused person and adjourned the matter until October 15 for sentence.
Earlier, the Prosecutor, ASP Badamasi Gawuna, had told the court that the accused committed the offence on August 19 in Kano.
He said this followed a sting operation conducted by the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-corruption Commission.
Gawuna said on the same date at about 11am, the accused took one of his female students (name withheld) to Ummi Plaza in Kano to help him in marking the final semester exams.
“In the process, the accused admitted to touching the said victim’s private part,” the prosecutor said.
The accused pleaded guilty to the charge.
