A 24-year-old man has been arrested and charged before Isolo
Magistrates’ Court for defiling and
engaging a 4-year-old girl in sexual activity in Lagos State, western Nigeria.
The suspect, Nwanagbaihu Chinonso, was allegedly caught by
one of his neighbours after he had already forced his penis into the little
girl’s mouth to suck.
The incident happened at Fakeye Street, off Isuti Road, Egan
where the suspect resides with the victim’s
parents.
What would have been the attraction for a 24-year-old man to
engage a 4-year-old girl in sexual activities was the question on the lips of
residents of Egan where the incident happened.
Chinonso was handed over to the police at Igando Division by
the residents for prosecution. At the station, he allegedly confessed to
committing the crime and blamed it on temptation.
He is now facing a two-count charge of defilement and
engaging in sexual activity with a minor before the court.
When he was arraigned in court, the presiding Magistrate,
Mrs A.O. Adedayo, ordered him to be remanded in prison custody pending when he
will be granted bail.
P.M.NEWS gathered that Chinonso’s journey to prison started one afternoon when the
victim strolled to his apartment and he closed his door without locking it from
inside.
The police alleged that he carried the victim and inserted
his finger into her private part and thereafter forced his penis into her mouth
to suck.
While the act was going on, a neighbour who suspected a foul
play suddenly opened the half locked door and saw what Chinonso was doing with
the victim.
The woman raised the alarm which attracted other neighbours.
Having been caught in the act, Chinonso could not deny what
he had done. Rather, he started pleading with the neighbours for forgiveness.
The neighbours rebuffed his pleas and handed him over to the
police.
