“I WANTED TO TEST HERVIRGINITY – SAYS MAN CAUGHT TRYING TO DEFILE DAUGHTER

A man arrested for allegedly attempting to ra-pe his
daughter in Ajeromi, Ifelodun local government area of
Lagos State, has told the police that he wanted to test
her virgi-nity.
The suspect, identified simply as Alex, was said to have
attempted to ra-pe his 15-year- old daughter, Agnes (not
real name), in his apartment at Abiodun street,
Ajegunle.
Alex was apprehended by his neighbors and handed
over to the police at Ajegunle police station but was
later released on bail at the weekend.
Leadership gathered that Alex had told Agnes to
undress up to her underwear, and allegedly wanted to
make love to her but she raised the alarm.The
neighbors came to her rescue after forcing the door
open.
A police inspector attached to Ajegunle police station,
who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told
Leadership that it was neighbors that dragged the
suspect to the station.

He said:
"His wife was not at home when he wanted to
perpetrate the act but the man denied doing that. You
know that nobody will agree that he wanted to rape his
daughter. Police acted on the information given to us
and even took the minor to the general hospital for
medical examination."
According to the source, Alex claimed that he only
wanted to check whether his daughter had been
breached.
"He wanted to know whether his daughter is still a vir-
gin or not. So he decided to insert his fingers, to know
her situation, according to him," he said.
