The men of Ogun State Police Command attached to
the Ayetoro Division have arrested a 25-year-old man, Kayode Akanni, of Pedepo
Village in Ayetoro for defiling a three -year- old girl.
The suspect was said to have tricked the victim
into his room, before he defiled her, damaging her private parts.
The command spokesman, Mr. Muyiwa Adejobi, said it
was the injuries inflicted on the girl that exposed Akanni.
This, he said, made her parents to report the
matter to the police and the suspect was promptly arrested.
The suspect, he added, had confessed to the crime.
He said, “During police interrogation, it was
discovered that the suspect tricked the young and innocent baby into his room
by telling her to bring to him a bunch of keys outside the room.
“It was after that he had unlawful carnal knowledge
of the girl.
“The suspect has confessed to the crime, while the
victim has been taken to hospital for treatment.”
Adejobi said the commissioner of police, Mr.
Ikemefuna Okoye, has ordered the case be transferred to the Department of
Criminal Investigation, Eleweran, Abeokuta for thorough investigation.
Adejobi said the command would carry out thorough
investigation and perfect prosecution of the matter, as such would deter people
from engaging in such barbaric act.
