Police operatives attached to the Festac Division, arrested one Jonas Nnubia, 43, for allegedly raping his wife’s niece.
Adejobi said the victim, who was taken to the police station in company with some officials of the Child Protection Network, Lagos State, alleged that the suspect had defiled her several times and threatened that she would die if she disclosed his criminal acts to anyone.
The PPRO stated, “The victim has been taken to hospital for necessary medical examination and attention in order to assist the police in carrying out their discreet investigation into the matter.
“The state Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, has directed that the suspects involved in the cases be transferred to the SCIID for proper investigation and possible prosecution.
“The police boss further stated that the command would leave no stone unturned in making sure that Lagos State was rid of criminals, especially cultists, who are the major perpetrators of crimes and social vices in the state. He also promised to continually partner with the Lagos State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development and other interest groups in fighting against gender/domestic based violence in the state.”
