Muslims protest after a hoodlum raped a woman in a mosque in Ibadan.

Some Muslim youth, scholars and organisations have staged a protest over alleged rape of a Muslim lady in one of the mosques in Ibadan, Oyo State.

It is reported that the sad incident happened on Sunday when the son of a road transport union worker, sneaked into a mosque and raped a niqobite.

A source in a chat with Sahara Reporters said, “The thug who raped a Niqobite (Muslim lady in veil) has been identified as Idris, also known as Kesari. He is the son of a union leader known as Al-Majiri. He was arrested by the police and the case has now been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID)”.

However, concerned Muslims led by Sheikh Amubieya held a peaceful walk, demanding justice for the victim.
