A Lagos teenage girl who was declared missing by her parents after days of search, was found in a 43-year-old neighbour’s room and they were reportedly having $3x for two days.
While the neighbour, Mr. Olaniyi Lawal, kept the 14-year-old girl locked inside with him while they had $3x within that period, the girl’s parents who were terrified and assumed their daughter had been kidnapped, reported to the police.
It was gathered that after Mr. Lawal released the girl to return home after two days, she was queried by her parents, and that was when she confessed she was with Mr Lawal and also disclosed that they had $3x.
According to the girl, she felt comfortable at his house at Suberu Oje Avenue by Casso bus stop in Alagbado, Lagos, which is why she did not return home despite knowing that her parents must be looking for her.
Mr. Lawal was arrested for abduction and rape after the girl’s parents who were angry that Lawal joined them in searching for the missing girl, while he had her locked inside his room and had sex with her multiple times, reported the new development to the police.
Though the suspect denied abducting the Lagos teenage girl and further alleged that he did not rape her as alleged by her parents, however the police found him culpable because of the age of the victim and charged Lawal before Ogba Magistrates court for the offence.
P.M Express reported that prosecutor, Inspector Donny Raphael, informed the court that Lawal abducted the victim, kept her inside his room and defiled her. The Presiding Magistrate, Mrs. B.O. Osunsanmi, ordered that Lawal be remanded in prison custody. The court directed the prosecutor to send the file to DPP for advice and then adjourned till 9th September 2018.
It was further gathered that if the DPP finds Lawal culpable of the said crime, he will be spending so many years in prison for the offence.
