Man defiles 13-yr-old Daughter

There was widespread anger at the Effurun Magistrate's District Court 1, in Uvwie Local Government Area, Delta State, when trial opened, in a case of sexual abuse and torture of 13-year-old Junior Secondary School, JSS, 2 student of Ekpan Basic Secondary School.

The Exonerate, Mrs. Chibuzor Onyeji, who lives at Oghoyoma Onomokpome , Ekpan, was impose with assault and  injuries on the visibly traumatised girl, who is her cousin and had been living with her since 2010.
Police are searching for her husband, Francis Onyeji, now at large, whose alleged sexual abuse of the girl resulted in his wife’s vicious knife attack.

Practically all lawyers and others present in the opening case were up against the accused counsel, when he argued that his client's life-threatening attack on the girl was only an accident and that Mrs. Onyeji had right to be angry.  

There were further angry mutters in the court when the accused knelt down and begged the girl to forgive her after pleading not guilty to the one-count charge of assault and causing grievous injuries.
