The Lagos State Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence sitting in Ikeja has sentenced the Medical director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, Doctor Olufemi Olaleye to life imprisonment for defiling his wife’s niece.
Justice Rahman Oshodi sentenced him to life imprisonment after he found him guilty of the offence of defilement and sexual penetration of a 15-year-old girl.
The judge on Tuesday held that the prosecution was able to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt and that all the evidence before the court corroborated that of the victim.
He added that the Doctor’s confessional statement and exchange of WhatsApp and email messages with his wife were enough evidence against him.
Olaleye was arraigned on two counts which bordered on defilement and sexual assault by penetration of his wife’s niece, preferred against him by the Lagos State Government.
The convict’s wife, Aderemi Olaleye, said on oath, “My lord, on November 27, 2021, my second cousin told my aunty who is my mother’s sister that since March 2020 Femi has been sexually abusing her and introduced her to pornography, from there he graduated to oral sex with her and he released sperm into her mouth, he does this in different places in the home where there are no cameras.”
The witness narrated to Justice Oshodi, that the girl confessed to a relative and their driver that the doctor had been sleeping with her and threatened to kill her and the witness if she told anyone.
