Detectives attached to the Oke-Odo Police Station, Ile-Epo, Abule-Egba area of Lagos State have started quizzing an 18-year-old man caught pants down having s*x with a mad woman on the road. The Eagle Online has more:

The suspect, Chimaobi Peter, said he had not yet penetrated before the screams of the woman alerted people. But the woman’s family members said Peter had already penetrated. They also alleged that he decided to have s*x with their aunt for ritual purposes. One of them said: “When he was dragged off her, she couldn’t get up for more than three/four hours. “She was extremely weak. “There’s no doubt that he used something on her.”

Although police are itching to prosecute Peter, but the detectives need all the evidence they could get. One of the key crucial evidence is to take the woman, identified simply as Iya Rasheedi, to Mirabel Centre at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital to ascertain penile penetration. The trouble however was that Iya Rasheedi refused to be cajoled or coaxed into going to Mirabel Centre.

Some of her relatives said the investigators should give them time to get one of her five kids, who are all married and live in different areas of Lagos, come speak to her. “Once she sees any of them, she would follow them to the hospital,” said one of her relatives. If the test is not carried out, Peter will go scot free.

Denying vehemently that he penetrated, Peter blamed his action on being drunk and on a supposed curse that had been following him from his village. Narrating his story, the suspect said he was drunk and was walking along the street when he saw the mad woman. She was stark unclad.
