VANCOUVER – On July 11, Vancouver Police responded to an area hospital for the report that a 12-year-old had been provided alcohol by an adult male who then had sexual relations with her. Investigators learned the male was 24-year-old Suliaman Abdul-Hadi, who is a level 3 sex offender who is on GPS monitoring and restricted from being around minors.
On July 18, with assistance from an Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS), detectives from the Children’s Justice Center/Elder Justice Center, Digital Evidence Cybercrime Unit (DECU), and the Crime Reduction Unit (CRU), executed a search warrant at Abdul-Hadi’s residence in the 2900 block of NE 143rd Avenue in Vancouver.
