15-year-old boy disguises as female to peep at girls bathing

The Zamfara state police command, Wednesday, arrested a 15-year-old boy identified as Yusuf Saleh after he allegedly disguised as a girl and sneaked into girls’ dormitory at the Federal College of Education (Technical) Gusau, the state capital, Daily Trust reports.

Reports claim Saleh had sneaked into the female hostel at about 6am on Wednesday so that he could allegedly catch a glimpse of the naked female students while they were bathing in an open space.

His discovery allegedly threw the school into pandemonium as the students thought he was a Boko Haram member who was there to attack them.

According to reports, the President of the Student Union Government of the college, Ibrahim Maryam, said Saleh was seen wearing a wrapper, hijab and a headscarf.

Maryam added that one of her colleagues who was able to reveal his real identity drew the attention of other students and he was quickly caught and handed over to the college security personnel.

Upon interrogation, the culprit alleged that he dressed as a female so he can avoid being denied access to the hostel.

According to him, he was just there to ‘see how the hostel looked like.’

When contacted, the state Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Sanusi Amiru, confirmed the incident and said investigations were ongoing and that the suspect would be charged to court soon.
