The suspect said he abducted one of the girls  with a view to having  carnal knowledge of her before he was caught and beaten by some residents.

He said  the timely intervention of  the security men saved him from being beaten to death.

The mother of the abducted girl, Mrs Fatima Ibrahim, also said that she was  taking her bath when some  children  ran in to report the abduction.

She said neighbors joined  her in the search for her daughter, leading to the arrest of the suspect.
