The victim, whose name is withheld, and had just arrived the country from England, had accompanied her grandmother, who had a civil case in court and needed a lawyer. While the grandmother was trying to get things done, the lawyer allegedly lured the unsuspecting little girl to an alley within the court premises and fondled her private part.
The little girl's cry was what attracted her grandmother, who asked her what the matter was and she started pointing to the lawyer, saying that he fondled her Bosom and also touched her private part.
Eyewitnesses say the lawyer was seen walking around the court premises with the little girl and when asked who the girl was to him, he said she was his daughter. He was also alleged to have carried the girl on his laps and gave his mobile phone to her to play with, while he was busy touching her Bosom and fingering her.
The eyewitnesses said it was when the girl started crying and went to report to her grandmother, who started slapping the lawyer that they got to know what happened. The noise, which disrupted the court proceedings, brought the matter to Chief Magistrate K. B. Ayeye’s attention. The little girl was said to have told the Chief Magistrate what the lawyer did to her.
The magistrate ordered that the lawyer be taken to Lion Building Police Station, Lagos Island, and when Vanguard visited the station, a police source said that Assistant Commissioner of Police had taken over the matter and also confirmed the presence of the lawyer at the command.

Fake news ad people are believing it. Grand mother arrived Nigeria and took his 9 year old to seek for a Lawyer----------crap. Firstly the woman will not be so daft to leave the girl abi na mini adult behind just like that. The girl in question will not be so much of an idiot to follow a man she never met. 9 year old should be in class 6 or so and old to know who is who. The one that truly broke the camel's back is noting the act was carried out in the court premises. If the grandmother had gone to look for a lawyer, that can only be in the day time so I take it that the act was committed in the day time when people will be almost everywhere in the court area. That is another lie. Posters should please know what they write because foreigners do read this stuff as well. Naijapals is not for Nigerians alone. Its an online page that travels wide.
