P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened at Enelu Danisa Street, Ijeshatedo area of Lagos, where they reside.
After they were arrested, the condition of the victim became much complicated following the medical test conducted, which showed that she was pregnant and cannot ascertain who between her father and the brother who actually was responsible.
The Police alleged that the man, Kehinde and the victim’s biological brother, Ayomide, conspired and engaged her in the act and it was concealed until she became pregnant. She then opened up and revealed what happened.
