Father Ties, Locks Up Six-Year-Old Daughter for Witchcraft


A 42-year-old father, Mr. Edet Etok-Akpan, is currently being quizzed at the headquarters of the Cross River State Police Command in Calabar for torturing his six-year-old daughter, Edidiong, as a result of a church prophetess' pronouncement that the girl was a witch.

Edidiong was beaten by her father and locked up in a room with her hands, mouth and face bound for four days without food before she was rescued by neighbours.

Meanwhile, Mr. Edet has been arrested and will soon appear in court to answer charges of felony.
