The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has rescued two children that were allegedly locked up in a toilet in a house in Garki, Abuja.

In a statement, the spokesman of the command, DSP Anjuguri Manzah, said the two kids were subjected to inhuman treatment by their guardian who lives on the second floor of a two-storey building in the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) Quarters, Garki.

He said one of the children, Wisdom Christopher, 9, whom he said miraculously escaped through the window of their guardian’s apartment located in a two storey-building, raised the alarm which led to the rescue of the second victim, Angel Nwoga, also 9-years-old, from the apartment.

He said the second victim was rescued from the apartment by operatives from Garki police division and some officials of the Federal Fire Service.
