The incident unfolded when the victim’s family, aggrieved by the purported assault, brought the case before the court.

Garandi Danjuma Ijudigal, a lecturer in the Department of Geography at ADSU, found himself in legal trouble after being accused of molesting a secondary school leaver within his office premises.

The magistrates’ court, presided over by Magistrate Chivi Ali, took swift action by remanding the lecturer in prison while the case unfolds.

The Adamawa State Police Command became involved in the case when the court initially referred it for proper investigation. Subsequent police inquiries exposed alarming details, leading to the lecturer being indicted for rape. It is alleged that the accused sexually assaulted the secondary school leaver after subjecting her to molestation in his office.

Sulaiman Ngurore, the spokesman for the Adamawa State Police Command, confirmed the incident, highlighting that the case initially lacked a police report. The subsequent investigation uncovered evidence that prompted the rape charge against the lecturer.

As the legal proceedings advance, the prosecution has sought legal advice from the state Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP), paving the way for a potential transfer of the case to a high court for thorough prosecution.

The remand of Garandi Danjuma Ijudigal underscores the severity of the allegations, with legal processes now in motion to ensure a comprehensive and just resolution to the case.
