Man lures neighbour’s 13-yr-old daughter with pornography

  • He’s been sleeping with me twice a week since July – Victim

 

The police in Lagos have arrested one Bashiru Salako for allegedly defiling a 13-year-old girl, Sarah Samson, in the Ikorodu area of the state.
Salako was alleged to have had carnal knowledge of the girl, when her parents had gone out of their home.
Findings also revealed that the suspect was in the habit of luring the young victim into his flat and showing her pornographic movies to seduce her.
It was also gathered that the victim’s private organ was damaged by the suspect in the process of the illicit act.
A resident of the community, Taiwo Olasukanmi, said Sarah’s mother had earlier noticed her daughter limping as if she had an injury on her leg.

He usually calls me and says that he wants to send me on an errand, but when I get there, he will lock me in his flat… he would then put on sex videos and instruct me to do what they’re doing and he would also do same to me

“Her mother first suspected that something was wrong with her when her movement was no longer normal. But when she asked her, she denied, but for a neighbour who later called her attention to the case, when she caught the man in the illicit act,” Olasunkanmi said.
Another resident, who simply identified himself as Akeem, said, “The man was usually seen with the girl, giving the impression that she was his relation. I was also shocked when I heard the news, because everyone thought the girl was his relation, especially with the manner he usually called and sent her on errands.”
A social worker with a Non-Governmental Organisation, Community Women’s Rights Foundation, Mrs. Adeyinka Ibrahim, said, “Medical examination conducted at Mirabel Centre confirmed the molestation of the under-age girl (penetration of both the vagina and the anus with rough handling of breasts).”
She added that Sarah was still in pain and had been unable to go to school due to injuries suffered from the illicit act committed against her person by Salako.
The mother of the young girl, Mrs. Abimbola Samson, told our correspondent that she had suspected that for some time her daughter’s way of walking had changed.
She said, “Every time I asked her she would say she was fine. Some days ago, when I was on my way out, a friend told me that Baba Gbolahan (suspect) had been abusing my daughter.
“When I got home, I decided to talk to my daughter about it. After asking and pressurising her, she finally opened up that our neighbour, Baba Gbolahan, raped her and had been abusing her.”
The victim’s mother added that her daughter confirmed to her that Salako had been having carnal knowledge of her, at least, twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays) since
around July.
Our correspondent also found out that Sarah’s parents were not usually at home on Mondays and
Thursdays.
Recounting her ordeal in the hands of the suspect, the young victim, said, “He usually calls me and says that he wants to send me on an errand, but when I get there, he will lock me in his flat.
“After that, he would then put on sex videos and instruct me to do what they’re doing and he would also do same to me.”
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Olarinde Famous-Cole, said, “Police investigation will commence on the case immediately…The suspect will face the law, if
found guilty.”
