A 74-year-old man, Aderinsola Addiths, has been arrested by the police for the alleged defilement of a 13-year-old girl in the Iju area of Lagos State.
It was gathered that the incident, which occurred on March 12, 2025, was reported to the Iju Division on March 13 at about 5:00PM.
In a signal message obtained by SaharaReporters, the victim’s father alerted the police after his daughter disclosed that she had been sexually assaulted by the suspect in his room.
However, the young girl, visibly traumatised, recounted the harrowing experience to her family, prompting immediate action.
A team of detectives swiftly responded to the scene, conducting a preliminary investigation.
The survivor was taken to a nearby hospital for a medical examination and necessary treatment, while the suspect was arrested and detained in police custody.
