The Osun State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of a motorcyclist, Damilare Jacob, for robbing and raping a female student (name withheld) in the Ile-Ife area of Osun State.
Parading the suspect at the police headquarters in Osogbo on Wednesday, Command Spokesperson Yemisi Opalola said Damilare was arrested after the victim lodged a complaint.
According to Opalola, “The incident occurred on July 26, 2024, around 9:30 pm. The complainant (student) had taken a bike from Obafemi Awolowo University Campus, Ile-Ife, to Moro. Upon reaching the RCC junction along the Ilesha-Ibadan expressway, the motorcyclist diverted into the bush, where he collected valuable items, including an iPhone X, worth N320,000, a Samsung A71 worth N150,000, an Airtel WiFi worth N10,000, and N20,000.”
She revealed that the suspect also allegedly cut the victim’s hair in her private parts and armpit.
Speaking with newsmen, the suspect, Damilare Jacob, said he was triggered by the way the victim underrated him as a motorcyclist, saying she could never marry someone like him.
He confirmed collecting the iPhone X, stating that the lady asked him to have intimacy with her instead of robbing her of the N75,000 in her account.
The suspect urged women not to leave their children behind when divorcing their husbands, citing the separation between his mother and father since he was a child as the cause of his problems.
He begged the police to show mercy in their justice, acknowledging his guilt of the crime committed.
