The Osun State Police Command has paraded a 29-year-old man, Kehinde Ariyo, who allegedly raped an 85-year-old woman in Ilesa, Osun State.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr Fimihan Adeoye, who paraded the suspect said that Ariyo raped the aged woman until she passed out. The CP said the woman was later resuscitated at a hospital.
The CP added that the old woman sustained serious injury when she was being raped by Ariyo but that she was responding to treatment in hospital. CP Adeoye assured that the suspect would be prosecuted after necessary investigation.
On his part, Ariyo said he was coming from a night party and that he needed a place to sleep till the following morning. He said he pleaded with the woman to allow him stay in her house till the morning and that the woman obliged him.
According to him, “In the night, I went to the room where the woman slept and told her that I needed to tell her something. I told her to open her door and she did. I cannot remember other things. I just know that it was not more than two rounds and I know it was the work of Satan.”
