Then they both took the complainant to the farmer's hut in a village beyond Shekki. The accused told the complainant he was going away on business and was leaving the complainant with the farmer and his wife Accused added that: he might be away overnight or maybe two or three days, but the complainant need not be afraid as he was quite safe there. Accused never returned. The complainant stayed with the farmer from April 80 to May 4 when his elder brother and some soldiers came and took him away.
