The prosecutor said Zulkani after riding for a few meters closer to “I see Block Factory” stopped and parked off the road and said he was going to urinate.

The prosecution said Zulakni was making phone calls whiles urinating and suddenly he went to the complainant and started accusing him of causing his penis to shrink.

Subsequently, the prosecution said Zulkani held the complainant’s dressfirmly and called Nasir and Musah to come.

After the examination, the Medical Officer on duty said Zulkani’s penis was normal and stable contrary to his assertion.

The prosecutor said the complainant was issued with a Police medical report form for treatment.
