A 45-year-old man, Jimoh Lukman, has been remanded by a magistrate court sitting in Illorin, Kwara State for allegedly his 14-year-old biological daughter.
According to The Leadership, Police First Information Report stated that the culprit was caught by the Sidikat, who reported the case to the police.
“The defendant (Jimoh), had been intimidating and threatening to deal with the victim and her mother if they expose the criminal act to anyone or to any law enforcement agent,” the FIR added.
During the suspect’s arraignment before the Court on Thursday, the prosecutor, Sanni Abdullah, informed the court of the Motion Ex-parte attached to the Police report, which sought the defendant’s remand, and urged the Court to grant the request.
The presiding Judge, Magistrate Aminat Shittu, granted the prosecutor’s request and ordered that the suspect be remanded at a correctional facility.
The Magistrate then adjourned the case until December 22, 2022.
