Rape

A 17-year-old boy, Jibola Fakologbon, has been sentenced to 14 years imprisonment by an Akure High Court for assaulting and raping a female student.

The convict who committed the crime at Ero, Igbara-Oke axis of Ifedore Local Council Area of Ondo State, was arraigned on a two-count charge after indecently touching and causing bodily harm…

The offences, according to the prosecuting counsel, D.G. Kayode, contravened Sections 60 and 358 of the Criminal Code of Ondo State, 2016. “He carried me with my bag to an uncompleted building, tore my underwear, and had sexual intercourse with me. “The evidence is believable, unassailable, and credible that the victim tried to resist the convict rigorously.”
