“He pushed me on his bed, removed my clothes and brought out his thing” – 8-yr-old girl narrates

The 8-year-old girl who was allegedly molested by the security guard.

The Punch reports that the security man who was watching porn on his phone, gave her the money, and persuaded her to stay with him.
While the movie continued, Barryneh repotedly asked Sandra to undress but when the youngster declined the order with the excuse that her mother would beat her, the security man resorted to violence, dragged her into bed and had carnal knowledge of the young girl.
The young girl, while recounting her ordeal, said:

“I asked Mr. Freedom (Barryneh) to give me N10 to buy biscuit and he did. He took me inside his room. He was watching one video that was showing naked men and women. He asked me to remove my clothes, but I said my mother would beat me.
“He pushed me and put me on his bed. He removed my clothes and put his thing inside my private parts. I was afraid of telling my mother.”
Ellen, Sandra’s mother, reported the incident at the Ajegunle Police Division which led to the suspect’s arrest on March 3 and the results of medical tests conducted on the girl at the Ajeromi General Hospital, Lagos, showed that the hymen was “broken with bruises around the infroitus.”

The outcome signed by one Dr IA Dauda, also affirmed that she suffered from “whitish foul smelling vaginal discharge.”
The suspect, a Rivers state indigene, admitted to giving the girl N10 to buy biscuit, but stated that he did not rape her, adding that the allegation was an attempt to blackmail him.

“I work with a private security outfit. She and her friends were playing when she came to me that she needed N10 to buy biscuit. She stood somewhere in my room waiting for the money. I was watching a love movie titled, ‘Naked Weapon’.
“It involved S3@.Xx:’. I was surprised when her mother reported at the station that I raped her daughter. I never had S3@.Xx:’ with the girl. I only gave her the money,” Barryneh lamented.

Sergeant Francisca Okere, the police prosecutor, who brought Barryneh before an Apapa Magistrate’s Court on two counts of rape, explained that the offence contravened sections 137 and 259 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.

“That you, Freedom Barryneh, sometime in August 2015, at about 14.30 hours on Akali Street, Ajegunle, Apapa, Lagos, in the Apapa Magisterial District, did penetrate S3@.Xx:’ually with your penis the privare parts of an eight-year-old girl, thereby committing an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 259 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, Nigeria, 2011,” the charge sheet read in part.

After pleading guilty to the charges, presiding magistrate, Mrs OA Adegite, admitted the accused to bail in the sum of N100,000 with two sureties in like sum and adjourned.
