The Katsina State police command on Wednesday paraded a 17-year-old housewife, Rabi Rabi’u, accused of stabbing her husband Shamsu Salisu, 25, to death.

The incident was said to have occurred in the village of Almakiyayi in Malumfashi Local Government Area of the state.

Police said Rabi attacked her husband with a knife while he slept, stabbing him in several places, including his stomach. It was also gathered that the couple had an altercation before the incident.

The command’s spokesman Gambo Isa told newsmen that the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) for Malumfashi division responded to a distress call following the couple’s disagreement.

It is unclear , however, who placed the distress call, whether it was the woman, her husband or a neighbour?

Isa said a police team rushed the injured the bleeding man to Malumfashi General Hospital where he was confirmed dead.
