Alhassan Dakogu attempted to run away but was arrested by the residents and handed over to the little girls’ family.

According to reports, the family of the little girl physically assaulted the alleged rapist before handing him over to the Police in Tamale.

The little girl’s uncle, Abdullah Gurundoo said the family is expecting a speedy trial of Alhassan Dakogu in the law court.
