Man, 42, Arrested For Luring Girl, 16, Into S*x By Sucking Her Breasts

P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened at Popoola Close, off Arowolo Street, Ebule Egba area of Lagos State, at his brother’s apartment.

According to the Police, the suspect lured the girl into the apartment, fondled and sucked her breasts making her unable to resist the moves and he eventually engaged her in sex.

Having satisfied himself, he allowed her to go but by then the girl had regained her senses and reported what happened to her parents alleging that she was lured into it without her consent.

The matter was reported to the Police at Alakuko Division and Lukman was arrested and detained at the station for interrogation over the alleged sexual conduct.

During interrogation, the suspect was said to have admitted to have done so but with her consent while the girl insisted that she was lured into the act.

However, the Police found him culpable because the victim is still a minor under the law and charged him before the Ogba Magistrates Court for the alleged offence.

The Court did not take his plea when he was arraigned following a motion moved by the prosecutor, Supol Akeem Raji, asking the Court to refer the matter to the DPP for advice.

The Presiding Magistrate, Mrs. B.O. Osunsanmi, ordered his remand in custody at the Correctional Centre at Kirikiri town, Lagos, pending the outcome of the DPP’s advice.

The matter was adjourned pending the outcome of the DPP’s advice, which will determine if the matter will be transferred to the High Court or not over jurisdiction.
