Tenant Remanded For Allegedly Defiling Landlord’s Daughter In Oyo State



The Chief Magistrate of the Iyaganku Family Court in Ibadan Oyo State, Mrs Olabisi Ogunkanmi, on Wednesday, ordered the remand of a tenant, Kareem Mojeed, for allegedly defiling his landlord’s seven-year-old daughter.

The court ordered that the defendant be remanded at the Agodi Correctional Centre, pending legal advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions.

Mojeed whose address was not given was brought before the court on a count of defilement preferred against him by the police.

Ogunkanmi, who did not take Mojeed’s plea, ordered that the case file be duplicated and sent to the DPP for advice.

She however, adjourned the case till October 14, 2024, for the DPP’s legal advice.

Earlier, the Prosecutor, Inspector Gbemisola Adedeji, told the court that Mojeed committed the offence on July 21 at 5.00 p.m.

Adedeji said the incident took place in the Ebedi area of Ibadan, in Oyo state.

The prosecutor also told the court that Mojeed lured the girl into his room and defiled her.

According to Adedeji, the offences committed contravened Section 34 of the Oyo State Child’s Rights Law, 2006.
