VDCare celebrates the recently achieved JUSTICE in Kaduna State, Nigeria!
“In a landmark ruling, three men—John Moses, Yakubu Mohammed, and Mustapha Musa—have been sentenced to death by hanging and surgical castration following their conviction on two charges of r**e in Kaduna.
Between June 2024 and February 2025, the Ministry secured three convictions for r**e in the state, sending a strong message of deterrence.
John Moses was convicted on June 7, 2024, under charges of r**e and in**st, receiving the death sentence and castration. Yakubu Mohammed was convicted on February 6, 2025, for similar charges, also receiving the same penalty. Mustapha Musa, convicted on February 24, 2025, for two counts of r**e, was sentenced to life imprisonment.
The cases were prosecuted by legal experts M.P. Danjuma Esq. and Halimatu S. Bello Esq. The sentences mark a firm stand against r**e and gender violence in the region, with hopes for further reforms in the justice system”.
