The police have arrested a 60-year old man, one Benjamin Omole, for allegedly engaging an 11-year old girl in sex romps in Surulere area of Lagos, where they reside.

It was gathered that Omole lured the
victim into his apartment, removed her clothes and defiled her before
allowing her to go but warned her not to tell anyone.

However,
the matter got exposed after the parents noticed changes in the victim’s
behaviour and body. She was confronted and she revealed that Omole,
popularly called Baba, had been sleeping with her.

The matter was
reported to the police in the area and Omole was arrested. The matter
was later transferred to the Gender Section of the State Command for
investigation.

It was gathered that the suspect, Omole, admitted
that he slept with the 11-year old girl but narrated that he did not
force her as claimed by her parents.

The police found him
culpable and charged him before the Ogba Magistrates Court for
defilement which may attract several years in prisons if found guilty.

However,
when the matter came up at the court, his plea was not taken after the
prosecutor asked the court to ordere for DPP advice because the victim
was a minor.

Thus, the Presiding Magistrate, Mrs O.Sule-Amzat,
ordered Omole to be remanded in prison custody without an option of
bail. The court also directed the prosecutor to duplicate the file and
send to the DPP for advice.

Therefore, Omole will remain in
prison custody pending the outcome of DPP advice. And if the DPP finds
him culpable, the matter will be transferred to the High Court for
trial.
