The Bauchi State Police Command has arrested a 17-year-old boy, Auwalu Muhammad for removing his 7-year-old sister’s eyes for suspected money ritual. The incident occurred in Wailo town in Ganjuwa Local Government Area of the state on October 17, 2025.

The spokesperson for the command, CSP Ahmed Mohammed Wakil, who confirmed the horrific incident in a statement on Monday, October 20 said the suspect lured his sister, Rukayya Muhammad, into a nearby bush, where he gruesomely attacked her and plucked out her eyes.

Rukayya was immediately rushed to the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH) in Bauchi for emergency medical treatment. Unfortunately, an ophthalmologist at the hospital confirmed that the minor will never regain her vision.

The PPRO said five other members of a ritualist syndicate have been arrested in connection with the heinous act.
