Six suspected rapists were on Wednesday paraded at the Lagos State Police Command, Ikeja.
While five of the suspects – Gabriel Obinna, Hector Uguchukwu, Chinedu Ezeanya, Akubueze Nnadozie, and Godwin Balogun were accused of raping a 24-year-old lady at a hotel in Agege, the sixth suspect, Emmanuel Mbati, 48, allegedly defiled his neighbour’s 18-month-old baby at Owutu, Ikorodu.
The state Police Commissioner, Fatai Owoseni, said the five suspects lured their victim through the social media by pretending to be real estate agents.
Owoseni said the suspects lured the lady, who was looking for accommodation, to Happy Hour Hotel, Agege, where they committed the crime.
The police commissioner said about three other ladies had been lured in similar manner by the suspects.
The suspects denied the allegations, insisting that their escapade with the unnamed lady was consensual.
