An
Ikeja Chief Magistrates' Court on Tuesday, remanded 45-year-old Santana Obend to Kirikiri Maximum Prison in Lagos after being charged with rape of a minor. The Chief Magistrate, Mr Tajudeen Elias ordered
the remand of the accused in prison pending the determination of his bail
application on Sept. 18, 2015. The accused, a security man who lives at 9,
Ajegunle Close, Isheri, a suburb of Lagos, was accused of abducting and raping
his neighbour's 14-year-old daughter. He is facing a two-count charge of abduction and
rape. The police prosecutor, Sgt. Jimah Isegede, had told the court that the
accused committed the offence on Aug. 7, 2015 at his residence.
"The accused
abducted his neighbour's 14-year-old daughter for three days in his apartment
and unlawfully had sexual intercourse with her several times. "All effort for the victim's parents to see their daughter proved abortive
until she was sighted by another neighbour in the apartment of the
accused," he said. According

Code of Lagos State, 2011.
