According to PM news man, Kundus Kazeem has
been arrested for allegedly raping a 19-year-old
bread seller at his home in Ajegunle, Lagos.
Kazeem who claims he had a fee agreement with
the bread seller has been charged before an
Apapa Magistrate’s court.
He is now facing a two-count charge of felony
and r*pe under the Criminal Code, Laws of
Lagos State.
The suspect allegedly lured the victim into his
one room apartment at Cemetery Road, Ajegunle
and with the aid of a walking stick, forcefully
had carnal knowledge of her.
The 29-year old Kazeem who admitted that
women reject him because of his physical
condition, said nothing was wrong him except
his two legs.
He also claimed he slept with her after they
agreed on a fee and regretted that he was not
able to meet the initial condition she gave him.
Kazeem told P.M .NEWS that he did not rape the
teenager as she claimed.
He said before they went to his room, they
agreed that he will pay N1,000 for the act and
that he used part of the money he had on him
to entertain her by buying drinks for her and
himself, after which he gave her N400.
He said she became angry and went and told her
parents that he raped her.
Contrary to his claim of bargaining with her,
P.M.NEWS gathered that Kazeem asked the
victim to come to his room and sell bread to
him.
She did not suspect anything and took the bread
to him and when she entered his room, he
locked his door and threw her on his bed and
used his walking stick to tie her hands, tore her
pant and raped her.
The victim went home and told her parents what
happened and the matter was reported to the
police and he was arrested and charged to court
for the alleged offence.
When the charge was read to him, he pleaded
not guilty. The presiding Magistrate, Mr M.K.O.
Fadeyi granted him bail in the sum of N500,000
with two sureties in like sum.
He was remanded in prison custody at Kirikiri
pending when he will perfect his bail conditions.
