A 70 years old man, Hunsu Sunday, has been arrested by the police in Ogun State for defiling his 15 years old grand daughter (names withheld) and subsequently, impregnating her.
Sunday was arrested on November 10 following a complaint lodged at Ado-Odo Divisional headquarters by the aunt of the victim.
The aunt, according to Ogun police spokesman, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, reported that the victim had been living with her grandfather since the demise of her mother.
She stated further that the victim came to inform her that her grandfather had been abusing her sexually for quite some time and she had been having strange feeling recently.
Upon the complaint, the DPO Ado-Odo, SP Michael Arowojeun, detailed his detectives to the scene where the randy old man was promptly arrested.
On interrogation, he confessed to having carnal knowledge of his granddaughter but claimed that he didn’t know that the victim was pregnant.
The victim has been taken to hospital for medical treatment.
Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, Edward Awolowo Ajogun, has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to anti-human trafficking and child labour unit of the state criminal investigation and intelligence department for further investigation and prosecution.
