A magistrate court in Port Harcourt has remanded a
middle-aged man, Alfred Chikere in prison for allegedly eloping with a
12-year-old girl.
The Court also ordered the detention of the minor in a
remand home for agreeing to have consented to s..e..xual intercourse with Chikere.
Chikere was slammed with two counts of Abduction and
defilement of a teenager and will be prosecuted under Section 361 of the
Criminal Code of the Rivers State Laws.
The Police in the charge sheet alleged that Alfred Chikere,
38 camped the 12-year-old girl in his house for up to a month before the
parents launched a search for her whereabouts.
The Prosecutor ASP Omorujia further told the court that the
man abducted the girl as a virgin and deflowered her through the one month he
took her in.
But Senior Magistrate C.J Digwe was shocked when the
12-year-old girl said she consented to the sexual advances of Chikere because
she “likes s.3.x”.
The Court adjourned the matter to April 20, 2021, for
hearing.
