Breaking News- BH Gunmen Have Kidnapped Eight Girls Aged 12-15 In NE Nigeria
Suspected Boko Haram gunmen kidnapped eight girls aged between 12 and 15 from a village near one of their strongholds in north-east Nigeria on Monday night, police and residents said on Tuesday.
"They were many, and all of them carried guns. They came in two vehicles painted in army colour. They started shooting in our village," said Lazarus Musa, a resident of Warabe, where the attack happened.
A police source, who could not be named, said the girls were taken away on trucks, along with looted livestock and food.
The Islamist rebels are still holding more than 200 girls they abducted from a secondary school on 14 April.
Their plight and the failure of the Nigerian military to find them has drawn international attention to an escalating Islamic extremist insurrection that has killed more than 1,500 so far this year.
Boko Haram, which translates as "western education is sinful", has claimed responsibility for the mass kidnapping and in a video released on Monday the group's leader, Abubakar Shekau, said Allah had told him to sell the girls.
The United Nations warned Islamist Boko Haram that there was no statute of limitations if they carried out their leader's threat.
"We warn the perpetrators that there is an absolute prohibition against slavery and intimate slavery in international law. These can under certain circumstances constitute crimes against humanity," UN human rights spokesman Rupert Colville told a news briefing in Geneva.
"That means anyone responsible can be arrested, charged, prosecuted, and jailed at any time in the future. So just because they think they are safe now, they won't necessarily be in two years, five years or 10 years' time," he said.
He also urged Nigeria's federal and local authorities to work together to rescue the girls.

Pit Bull Sentence To Life Imprisonment For Mauling Little Kid (PHOTOS)
A judge ruled Tuesday that a pit bull that mauled a 4-year-old boy earlier this year will spend therest of its life in an animal shelter set up in an old jail by the sheriff for metropolitan Phoenix.
Phoenix Municipal Court Judge Deborah Griffith said the dog named Mickey will be housed in the no-kill shelter opened in 2000 by Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, an animal lover who
offered to take in the 4-year-old pit bull. Griffith had declared the dog vicious at a hearing a month ago but declined to have him euthanized after animal-rights advocates came to its
defense. Instead, she ordered Mickey to be neutered and defanged and gave the Lexus
Project, a New York-based animal-rights group and the dog’s trustee, 30 days to find a rehabilitation center or shelter to take him. The
judge said the dog could not be put up for adoption. The Feb. 20 attack left 4-year-old Kevin Vicente with a broken eye socket and jaw, and the boy has months, if not years, of reconstructive surgery ahead of him.
The case touched off a polarizing Internet debate on mercy, blame and animal violence, leading to
candlelight vigils and riling up thousands of animal lovers on social media who placed blame
with the dog’s owners and child’s baby sitter. Donations and gifts from around the world have
flowed in for Kevin since the dog bit the boy in the face.
Animal advocates say both the dog and boy are victims and a baby sitter watching the child was
negligent in letting him play near the animal. They also argued the owner was fostering aggression
by keeping the dog chained up.
The sheriff, who is known nationally for his immigration enforcement efforts and housing jail inmates in tents, testified that he was confident that Mickey would be housed at the shelter for
the rest of the dog’s life.
Arpaio also said he didn’t get involved in the case to get publicity.
Later in the day, the sheriff will testify at a deposition in a civil rights lawsuit that the U.S.
Justice Department filed against his office alleging racial profiling, retaliation against critics
and other accusations. Arpaio denies those claims.
At the dog’s hearing, the question was raised of what would become of the animal if Arpaio is no
longer sheriff.
“I expect to be the sheriff forever,” the 81-year-old sheriff quipped.
The judge pressed Arpaio on what would happen to the animals in his shelter if a future sheriff were to end the shelter program. Arpaio answered that any sheriff who would close such a program
wouldn’t get re-elected. A supporter of the dog, Veronica Lee, said Mickey will be able to enjoy more freedoms in Arpaio’s
shelter than at another county facility where he’s currently being held.
“Today, justice was served for Mickey,” she said.
Griffith also denied a request from a lawyer representing the dog to rescind her order that
Mickey be defanged.
Attorney John Schill said it would make more sense to give the $2,500 the procedure costs to
the injured child’s family. Schill said the defanging wouldn’t result in the dog losing his
canine teeth, but rather they would be cut down and capped to match the height of the other
teeth.
“Kevin’s injuries are so vast and so devastating that $2,500 is really just a drop in the bucket,”
Griffith said, adding that she doesn’t want the dog to harm another person. That’s when Sheriff Joe Arpaio stepped in.
If the name sounds familiar you probably know him for his intense views on illegal immigration
(he hates it) and his less than great treatment of inmates at his prisons. One of those prisons has
a “no-kill” animal shelter inside, and that’s where Mickey will be staying. Happy at the judge’s decision, Sheriff Arpaio tweeted:
