27 year old in custody for raping two year old.
« on: February 11, 2014, 07:04:31 AM »
An Osogbo magistrate’s court has
ordered a 27-year-old man, Akeeb Ibrahim, to be
remanded in Ilesa prison for allegedly raping a two-
year-old girl. Ibrahim was alleged to have raped the girl (name
withheld) in his room at his house located at Isale‑Afo
area of Ikirun, headquarters of Ifelodun Local
Government Area of Osun state. According to the charge sheet read in court, the
accused person lured the girl into his room at about
1.00 p.m. when her parents had left for their shops. The Police prosecutor, Abiodun Fagboyinbo, an
inspector, told the court that the accused unlawfully
had carnal knowledge of the girl. He explained that the accused person had through his
action committed rape, an offence which he said was
contrary to Sections 218 and 222 of the criminal
code, cap 34 vol 11, laws of Osun state, Nigeria 2003
and 2007 respectively. The accused person, however, pleaded not guilty to
the two-count charge of rape and assault levelled
against him. Counsel to the accused person, Mr. Amaechi Ngwu,
prayed the court to grant his client bail in the most
liberal terms, stressing that the accused person
should be presumed innocent until the contrary is
proved.
