A teenage girl, (names withheld), on Friday narrated to an Akure High Court how her classmate lured her to her uncle’s house who struggled to remove her pants and had his way with her.
She and two others were victims of the suspect who the police hauled before Justice Olutoyin Akeredolu.
The suspect has allegdly been sleeping with his niece for a long time and succeeded in convincing her to bring over her friends so he could do same.
Prosecution witness told the court that he often gave the girls N100 after sleeping with them.
The bubble burst when the girls started fighting over the money he gave one of them.
The matter was reported to school authorities and on investigation, facts emerged.
One of the victims in a written statement narrated how the suspect forced himself on her, pulled off her pants, slept with her and after “something like water came out which he used red cloth to clean up”, gave her N100 and warned her not to tell her parents or she will die.
Reacting, the suspect denied forcing himself on the girls, stating that they consented.
However, the court held that the prosecution proved beyond reasonable doubt that he forced himself on them and the trial judge found him guilty as charged and sentenced him to life imprisonment.
