Married Man, 50, In Police Net Over Secret S*x With Lady, 20
CYRIACUS IZUEKWE
A 50-year old married man, Chidi Eze, has landed in trouble after he secretly lured a 20-year lady into sex romp in Lagos State.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the lady in question reported to the Police that she was allegedly raped by the suspect, Eze. The Police arrested him and contacted his wife before charging him to Court.
The incident happened on 13th March, 2022, at Rabiu Ajose Street, Isheri Oshun area of Lagos, where they reside.
The Police however, did not state how he raped her but alleged him to have lured the victim and raped her, which is an offence that attracts several years of imprisonment if he is tried and found guilty before the Court.
After his arrest, he was transferred to the Gender Section of the Lagos State Command for interrogation over the alleged rape and was found culpable after the victim’s narration of what happened.
However, he denied raping her; he explained that he had sex with her but it was with her consent. That denial did not save him from prosecution as the Police charged him before the Ogba Magistrates Court for the alleged offence.
When he was arraigned, the Court did not take his plea after the prosecutor, DSP Kehinde Ajayi, asked the Court to refer the matter to the DPP for advice in the interest of justice on the matter.
The Presiding Magistrate, Mrs. E. Kubeinje, ordered his remand in custody 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 3rd May, 2022, for the report of the DPP to be available, which will determine if the matter will be transferred to the High Court or not over jurisdiction.
