A 63-year-old man, Alabi Ibrahim, has been remanded in prison for allegedly infecting his 13-year-old step-daughter with HIV.
The accused person who had earlier been arraigned for allegedly sexually abusing the young girl, was re-arraigned for infecting the victim with the
virus. This shocking discovery was contained in a medical examination report tendered before the court.During cross examination, Alabi admitted being HIV positive, but vehemently denied having carnal knowledge of his step-daughter, let alone infecting her with the deadly virus.
He claimed that the victim had earlier been sexually abused by a relative of his wife, adding that he resolved to send the girl packing when he observed that she was wayward and loose.
The Director of Public Prosecution however emphasised that the accused infected the victim after defiling her, adding that the accused also got a separate a room for the girl in the home to pave way for regular sex with her.
The plaintiff also maintained that the accused had always had sex with her under the guise of helping her with her home work.
A witness in the case, Sakirat Mosaku, told the court that Alabi’s wife had raised the alarm about the relationship between her daughter and husband.
A state High Court sitting in Isabo Abeokuta, Ogun State and presided over by Justice A. Akinremi on Friday ordered that Alabi be remanded in prison while the case was adjourned for further hearing till July 7, 2015.
