According to the Nation, one Ugochukwu Kingsley, 21, was arrested last year November 28, 2016, in Oriwu along Igbogbo Road, Ikorodu, Lagos, for allegedly defiling his 11-year-old neighbor.
He was arrested after a complaint by the girl’s parents that he had had unlawful sexual intercourse with her.
He was accused of entering the bathroom when the girl was taking her bath. The girl was said to have started bleeding after the act.
He said: “I didn’t force myself on her. I asked her, she was aware of everything. I didn’t sleep with her but I made an attempt. I didn’t know she was bleeding.”
He was arraigned on December 5 2016 before Chief Magistrate O. Oshoniyi on one-count of “unlawful sexual intercourse.”
Kingsley pleaded guilty to the charge.
Mrs Oshoniyi ordered the case file be transferred to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) for advice.
She remanded Kingsley in Kirikiri prison.
The case was adjourned till January 26.
