    The Bauchi State Police Command has arrested 20-year-old Safiyanu Dalhatu for allegedly beating his mother to death.

    This was disclosed in a press release issued on Tuesday by the command’s Police Public Relations Officer, Ahmed Wakil.

    He explained that, “On February 24, 2025, Peace and Security Committee members in the Abujan Kwata area of Bauchi reported an incident to the ‘A’ Divisional Police Headquarters.

    “At about 3pm, Safiyanu Dalhatu, a 20-year-old male resident of Abujan Kwata, allegedly assaulted his biological mother, Salama Abdullahi, a 40-year-old female of the same residence.

    “Safiyanu Dalhatu is accused of attacking Salma Abdullahi with a heavy pestle, resulting in fractures to both of her hands as well as other bodily injuries.”

    Wakil noted that upon receipt of the report, the Divisional Police Officer, Abdullahi Muazu, led a team of detectives to the scene and transported the victim to the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Teaching Hospital, Bauchi for medical attention, where a medical professional confirmed her death.

    The statement noted that “Initial investigations suggest that the altercation between the suspect and his biological mother precipitated the assault.

    “The suspect has been apprehended, and the pestle used in the incident has been recovered and documented as exhibits.”

    The PPRO stated that the state Commissioner of Police, Auwal Muhammad, has directed a thorough investigation by the State Criminal Investigation Department.

    He asserted that following the completion of the investigation, the suspect will be prosecuted.
