Hassan stated that Zaliha handed the child back to Maryam, who immediately noticed that the baby was in distress, with foam coming out of his mouth and a visible injury on his neck.

According to him, “the child was rushed to a nearby hospital in the village but was pronounced dead on arrival.”

Following the incident, the statement explained that the DPO of Soba Division quickly mobilised his team and arrested the suspect, Zaliha Shuaibu, adding that during interrogation, she confessed to feeding the baby acid with the help of her husband’s younger brother, Lawal Muhammad, who is currently on the run.

According to Hassan, Zaliha confessed that it was Lawal who provided the acid used to carry out the heinous act.

The Commissioner of Police in Kaduna State, CP Rabiu Muhammad, has assured the public that no stone will be left unturned in the investigation and that all individuals connected to the crime will be brought to book.
