32-year-old Ikorodu Okada rider Sikiru Adetona, who allegedly raped his friend’s 8-year-old sister, on Friday appeared before an Ikeja Chief Magistrates’ Court.
The accused, who resides at Ikorodu, a suburb of Lagos, is being tried for rape.
The accused committed the offence sometime in December 2012 at the accused’s residence, police prosecutor Richard James told the court.
Mr. James said that the 8-year-old girl was sent on an errand to the accused’s residence and the accused lured her into his room on the pretext of sending her to her brother, who is his friend.
“The accused shut the door and raped her; thereafter, the accused disappeared and all efforts to trace him failed.”
Mr. James said the case was reported to the police which declared him wanted.
