SHAMEFUL ACT! COURT JAILS MAN 9 YEARS FOR RAPE!

For raping a 14 year old girl, an  Igbara-Oke, Ondo State Chief Magistrate Court has sentenced an Okada operator Seun Aderemi 30,  to nine year imprisonment with hard labour.

The rape victim is a primary six school girl‎.

Magistrate  Olusola Olowookere while delivering judgment ‎in the matter which was committed on June 27 this year gave the accused person no option of fine.

Olowookere ‎said that the punishment would serve as deterrent to others who take advantage of minors.



The magistrate said that it was evidently clear from the evidences given by the witnesses and the protection witness A. Asani that the victim did not give her consent to the illicit act.

According to the magistrate, the evidences of the accused person and his child Ayobami were contradictory.

Earlier, the prosecution witness had told the Court that the accused person contravened section 357 of the state criminal ‎law of 2006.

Asani said that the victim didn't give her consent to the rape hence the "the kind of maltreatment she received from the accused person"
