Father remanded for allegedly defiling teenage daughter in Lagos

On Tuesday, the Badagry Chief Magistrates’ Court remanded Joseph Gamor, 58, for allegedly defiling his 13-year-old daughter.

The sitting judge, Patrick Adekomaiya, declined to take a plea and remanded Gamor to the Awarjigoh Correctional Centre seeking legal advice from the director of public prosecution.

The prosecution counsel, Ayodele Adeosun, informed the court that the suspect defiled the kid in his home on the morning of May 9.

The defendant, a 58-year-old man, lives around Golden GLO bus stop, Imeke, Badagry.

He added that the offence contravened the provisions of sections 261 and 263 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.

The judge adjourned the case until July 29 for further hearing.
