The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a man for allegedly defiling his daughter.
Also in the police net were two alleged sexual predators who allegedly raped two girls on separate occasions.
Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Chike Oti, in a statement, gave a graphic account on how the crimes were committed , said ” The first is a case involving Aliu, 40 of, Peluola Street, Mafoluku, Oshodi, who took advantage of a 16-year-old physically challenged girl child (deaf and dumb), more than a year ago, precisely on November 10, 2017, and had been on the run ever since.
” The said Aliu had on the aforementioned date, at Oshodi, allegedly lured the survivor by pretending he was going to buy noodles for her, hence she unsuspectingly followed him to an abandoned shop along Oshodi road where he defiled her.
Although he was caught in the act, he managed to escape and remained in hiding until he came out of hiding recently to challenge a property developer at a site in OOshodi, demanding some fees with menaces from the property owner, claiming to be an ‘Omoonile’.
” He was, however, identified by one of the workers at the site as a suspect on the wanted list of the police. The worker sneaked out and alerted the Divisional Police Officer, Makinde Police Station, who promptly arrested him and handed him over to the Gender Section of the Command for further investigation.
” The second case involves one Okafor of Oketa Street, Mende-Maryland who lured a 15-year-old girl who ran away from home because her mum threatened to beat her up for losing an important item. He got her into his car and took her to a beer parlour where he convinced her to take some liquor.
Being her first time to indulge in such a habit, the little girl was completely knocked out after guzzling several bottles of alcoholic drinks.
“The suspect, seeing the state of the survivor, took her to a hotel at Oshodi. At this point, the little girl whom he had completely undressed told him to let her be because she is a virgin but he still went ahead and shaved her pubic hair, deflowered her and went away with the shaved hair.
“The following morning being October 18, the suspect took her to his friend’s place in Maryland and had his way with her the second time. He thereafter took the survivor in his car and dropped her at the nearest location to her parents’ house.
“The girl narrated her ordeal to her mum and she immediately petitioned the state Commissioner of Police, CP Imohimi Edgal who ordered a manhunt for the perpetrator.
” The suspect was however arrested on Saturday, November 24, by detectives attached to the Gender Unit of the Command.
” The last case involves a security at a school in Lagos, whom for the sake of the survivor, the Command would not like to mention his full name or the school where he was employed as a security man.
But the suspect, simply identified as Bello, 56, was reported by the school authorities that he had been having sexual intercourse with his daughter who lived with him in a one-room security post apartment given to him by the school management.
” According to the survivor, her father slept with her every night. Thereafter he gave her contraceptives to prevent her from becoming pregnant.
“The three suspects mentioned in these cases will be charged to the Family section of the Ikeja Magistrate court tomorrow”
