A pastor, Adekunle Francis has been arrested by Police in
Ogun State, for allegedly raping a 17-year-old girl, Dolapo. The suspect, who
was arrested on Tuesday, November 22, 2016, was said to have lured the girl
into an uncompleted building under the pretext of praying for and anointing
her.
As soon as they entered the uncompleted building, the pastor
was said to have turned on the girl and raped her.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi,
said the victim later reported her ordeal at the Sango Police Station, adding
that the Divisional Police Officer, Akinsola Ogunwale, immediately dispatched a
team of detectives to the scene where the suspect was promptly arrested.
He said, "On interrogation, the suspect confessed to the
crime. He told policemen at the Sango Police Division that the act was the work
of the devil."
Oyeyemi, an Assistant Superintendent of Police, said the
state Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu, had ordered the immediate transfer
of the case to the Anti-Human Trafficking and Child Labour Unit of the State
Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Abeokuta, for further
investigation.
