A 37-year-old farmer has been sentenced to life imprisonment for defiling his neighbour’s six-year-old daughter in Ijebu-Owo, Owo Local Government Area of the state, Nigeria.
The suspect was arrested by men of the state police command after committing the act.
“He had carnal knowledge of the victim in his room without using a condom after taking a herbal alcoholic drink,” according to reports.
“The victim’s testimony is corroborated by the convict’s confessional statement that he had unlawful sexual intercourse with her,” according to the court.
“He is hereby sentenced to life imprisonment for the defilement of a child to serve as a deterrent to others who might engage in such act,” the court ruled.
