Lagos lawyer was caught fondling a 9-year-old girl’s breasts and private part in the premises of Tinubu Magistrate’s Court, Lagos

A Lagos-based lawyer (names withheld) was caught yesterday fondling a 9-year-old girl’s breasts and private part in the premises of Tinubu Magistrate’s Court, Lagos. The young girl is said to have just arrived the country from England, and had accompanied her grandmother, who had a civil case in court and needed a lawyer. She was then referred to the said lawyer who allegedly lured the little girl to an alley within the court premises and fondled her private part.

It was the cry of the little girl that attracted the grandmother, who asked her what the matter was and she started pointing to the lawyer, saying that he fondled her breast and also touched her private part. He allegedly carried the girl on his laps and gave his mobile phone to her to play with, while he was busy touching her breast and fingering her.

According to reports, it was when the girl started crying and went to report to her grandmother, who started slapping the lawyer that they got to know what happened. The noise, which disrupted court proceedings, brought the matter to Chief Magistrate K. B. Ayeye’s attention. The little girl was said to have told the Chief Magistrate what the lawyer did to her. Ayeye then ordered that the lawyer be taken to Lion Building Police Station, Lagos Island.
