A 34-year-old man identified as Ayuba Adavo, is now cooling off at the Delta State Police Command, after falling asleep at a crime scene, where he allegedly raped a woman.
The rapist had reportedly dozed off after forcefully having carnal knowledge of a 25-year-old lady in Sapele, on November 8 at about 8pm. Africa Update gathered that the suspect had accosted the victim along Amagiya road, Sapele, and forcefully dragged her to his room. He had porpurtedly brandished a locally fabricated gun, threatening to shoot her if he was not allowed to have his way.
Confirming the incident to newsmen, the Delta State police spokesman, DSP Bright Edafe, said: “the suspect thereafter slept off because he was heavily drunk. The victim on noticing that the suspect was fast asleep sneaked out and ran to Sapele division where she reported the case.
“Consequently, patrol team/detectives were drafted to the scene. The suspect was promptly arrested, one locally cut to size gun with one live cartridge was recovered from him. Investigation is ongoing.”
