POLICE ARREST 17-YEAR-OLD SUSPECT FOR DEFILING 3-YEAR-OLD GIRL IN SAKI




In its bid to rid the state of gender-based violence and offenses targeted at women and vulnerables, operatives of the Oyo State Police Command have arrested a 17-year-old male, one Usman Dauda, for defiling a 3-year-old girl in Saki.


This operational breakthrough followed a distress report lodged at the Saki Divisional Station on September 17, 2026, at about 1800hrs, after the child went missing while being retrieved from school earlier that afternoon. 

A localized search subsequently led to her recovery along the roadside in a state of distress, where preliminary inquiries revealed that the suspect had forcefully taken her into his apartment to commit the heinous act.


Prompted by this revelation, detectives swiftly visited and secured the scene of the crime, resulting in the immediate arrest of the suspect and the recovery of critical physical evidence linked to the offense.


While investigations were immediately activated, the young survivor was promptly rushed to a medical facility in Saki, where she is currently receiving comprehensive clinical treatment and psychotherapeutic care.


In light of these developments, the Oyo State Police Command reiterates its unwavering zero-tolerance policy against child abuse and sexual violence. 

Furthermore, in strict compliance with the Child Rights Act and established ethical protection guidelines, the privacy, dignity, and identity of the survivor and her family will remain fully protected throughout this process.


To ensure justice is thoroughly served, the case have been transfer ed to the Gender Desk State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Iyaganku, Ibadan, for exhaustive investigation and prosecution.


Consequently, the Command assures the good people of Oyo State of its commitment to safety and urges members of the public to remain vigilant by promptly reporting any acts of violence against children or vulnerable persons to the nearest police facility.
