A yet-to-be identified female student of the Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto State was on Thursday burnt alive over an alleged comment against Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W).
The female student was, according to reports, beaten to a pulp before she was set ablaze.
In a video trending on social media, some young men were seen hurling stones at the victim.
When the victim fell to the ground unconsciously, the attackers gathered tyres around her before she was set ablaze.
Efforts to reach the Sokoto State Police Command were unsuccessful at the time of filing this report.
The command’s Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Sanusi Abubakar, did not pick his calls nor responded to text messages forwarded to him.
