Police operatives from the Lagos State Command have arrested a 38-year old man, Gbadamosi Afeez, for alleged sexual molestation of his two under aged sons through finger penetration of their anus.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened at Iyanamuda area of Agric in Ikorodu, Lagos, where they reside.
Accordingly to the Police, between 2021 and March 2022, Afeez has been sexually assaulting the victims aged between 3 and 7 years by penetrating their anus with his fingers in order to satisfy his sexual desires.
This was said to have been going on before the victims opened up and revealed what was happening to them and the matter was reported to the Police at Alausa Division. Afeez was then arrested and detained at the station for interrogation over his conduct.
After thorough interrogation, the Police found him culpable and subsequently charged him before the Ogba Magistrates Court for statutory rape.
However, when he was arraigned, the Court did not take his plea following a motion moved by the prosecutor, Inspector Lucky Ihiehie, asking the Court to refer the matter to the DPP for advice.
The Presiding Magistrate, Mrs. O.A. Layinka, ordered his remand in custody at the Correctional Centre at Kirikiri town, Lagos, pending the outcome of the DPP’s advice and directed the prosecutor to duplicate the file and send it to the DPP.
The matter was adjourned till 20th March, 2023, for mention, for the DPP’s report to be available, which will determine if the matter will be transferred to the High Court or not over jurisdiction.
