The defendant, who resides in Shagisha, Magodo, Lagos, is facing a two-count charge of sexual assault and defilement
Ademigbuji said that the defendant, who lives with her employer, was caught by the victim’s father after she had asked the 5- year-old boy to lie down and she laid on top of him.
The prosecutor said that the victim’ father saw the victim’s erection and knew it wasn’t normal, so he then called his son who narrated how it happened to him.
The offences according to the prosecutor contravened Sections 137 and 263 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
