Nemesis has finally caught up a 50-year-old man, Kayode Oladehinde, for defiling his 13-year-old stepdaughter in Olope Street, Ogijo area of the state.
The culprit is currently cooling his feet in the Police cell, as officers of Ogun State Police Command have since apprehended him.
The State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Abimbola Oyeyemi, said the suspect was arrested, yesterday, following a report from the victim’s mother.
She lodged a complaint that her daughter informed her on February 4, 2020, that the suspect, who is her current husband has been forcefully having carnal knowledge of her, as a result of which she got pregnant.
Oyeyemi said: “She stated further that the suspect, having realised that the victim is pregnant, gave her drug to abort the pregnancy, which led to her bleeding profusely.
