A 25-year-old teacher, Omobolanle Micheal Olaniyi, has been remanded in a custodial centre by an Ikeja S3xual Offences and Domestic Violence Court over the alleged s3xual assault of a six-year-old pupil.
The Lagos State Police Command arraigned Olaniyi on Monday, November 4, 2024.
The suspect who was arrested July 24, 2023, was being charged with the indecent treatment of a child and s3xual assault by p3netration.
According to the prosecuting counsel, B. E. Okeowo, the offences contravene Sections 135 and 261 of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State, 2015.
The alleged assault occurred at Oliver Care Montessori School Ogba where Olaniyi was a teacher and the victim a pupil.
According to the charges, Olaniyi indecently touched the victim’s buttocks, carried her on his lap and s3xually assaulted her by inserting his fingers into her v@gina.
“Omobolanle Michael Olaniyi, sometime in July 2023, at the Oliver Care Montessori School, Ogba, Lagos State, in the Ikeja Judicial Division did treat one (name withheld) female, aged six-year-old indecently by touching her buttocks and carrying her on your laps,” the charge read.
