Man, 23, Baths Police Sergeant’s Face With Faeces From Cell 

P.M.EXPRESS reports that the 23-year old suspect, Abayomi Damilare, was subsequently charged before the Mapo Customary Court in Ibadan, Oyo State and was sentenced to six months imprisonment with hard labour for pouring his faeces on the Police woman.

The President of the Court, S.M. Akintayo, convicted Damilare after he was arraigned before the Court and he pleaded guilty for the assault.

The Prosecutor, Sgnt Ayodele Ayeni, had tendered an overwhelming evidence before the Court, which led the President of the Court, Mrs. Akintayo, to summarily try and sentenced him accordingly.

The Court’s President described the convict as an “unrepentant criminal” having observed that he had been convicted and was sentenced to one-month community service in February, by the same Court for causing grievous bodily harm to his victim.

The Prosecutor, Ayeni, had earlier told the Court that the convict was detained at a Police station for allegedly assaulting an elderly man and while he was in the cell, he was shouting before the victim, Sgt.Olofintuyi, responded to a distress call by the convict, asking to meet the Investigating Police Officer in charge of the assault case.

“My lord, Damilare was banging the gate of the cell, requesting to see the IPO in charge of his case when the Police woman, Olofintuyi, went to attend to him.

However, Damilare poured faeces on Olofintuyi’s body immediately she opened the cell gate,” the prosecutor said.

The prosecutor, also tendered the photograph of the assault before the Court as well as the defendant’s confessional statement as exhibits and evidence.

Mr. Ayeni said that the offence contravened Section 356 of the Criminal Code Cap. 38 Law of Oyo State of Nigeria, 2000.

He was found guilty and sentenced accordingly for the offence and remanded in the Correctional Centre pending when he will finish serving his jail sentence.
