“He punched the lecturer when she rejected his demand and beat her blue and black to the extent of breaking the window louvres with an attempt to stab her with the pieces.
“The lecturer screaming for help attracted the attention of the security operatives who thronged to the scene and rescued her from Waliu’s net”.
