The man was then arrested and later transferred to the Gender Section of the Command for investigation.After thorough interrogation, he was found culpable and then charged before the Ogba Magistrates Court for the alleged offence.
The Court did not take his plea after the prosecutor, Supol Victor Eruada, asked the Court to refer the matter to the DPP for advice.
The Presiding Magistrate, Mrs. M.O.Tanimola, ordered the man’s remand in Correctional Centre at Kirikiri town, Lagos, pending the outcome of the DPP’s report without an option of fine.

The Police source said the matter may likely be transferred to the High Court if the DPP’s report finds him culpable and recommends his trial for the alleged offence.
