Abuja: Man held for sex with minor

An Abuja Magistrate's court on Wednesday remanded a 21-year-old man, Harrison Eze, in prison custody for alleged forceful carnal knowledge of a minor.

The prosecutor, Sergeant Ambi Ayuba, told the court that the accused committed the offence on April 6, at about midnight in a bush.

Ayuba said the offence contravened section 275 of the penal code.

According to the prosecutor, the accused accosted the minor while she was returning from an errand and forcefully had sex with her without her consent.

Eze denied the allegation when the one-count charge of procuration of a minor was read to him.

Counsel to the accused, Mr. Chiemeka Okereke, urged the court to admit his client to bail.

The prosecutor objected to the application on the grounds that the police had not concluded investigation on the matter.

He said the hospital where the minor was treated after the forceful sex had not issued a medical report on her condition.

The magistrate, Mrs Njideka Duru, upheld the objection of the prosecution and asked the defence lawyer to formally apply for bail for the accused.

Duru adjourned the case to April 16, to rule on the bail application.
