Enraged Father Cuts Off Man's Penis For Allegedly Raping His Daughter

Seun Ogunbanwo

An angry father, Dennis Akpati, attacked and cut off the penis of a young graduate, Seun Ogunbanwo, after catching him having sex with his 20yr old daughter inside his flat at 52, Tijani Alabi Street, Ijegun, on the outskirts of Lagos.

Ogunbanwo, a graduate of Business Administration who recently finished his NYSC was attacked with a machete and beaten mercilessly. The machete was later used to slice his penis.

He was handed over to the police who took him to the hospital for treatment and later charged with having an unlawful carnal knowledge of a 20-year old lady before the Ejigbo Magistrates' Court, Lagos.

The accused was brought to court by the police to face the charges but when the presiding magistrate, Mrs. M. B. Folami, saw the pitiable state of the accused, she ordered the police to arrest the father of the victim (Akpati) and others involved in the battering of the accused and charge them to court for assault.

She explained that under the law, the accused is presumed innocent until found guilty, adding that nobody should be allowed to take the laws in his hands.

Ogunbanwo was alleged to have sneaked into Akpati's home when the victim was alone and forcefully had sex with her. The father allegedly caught him on top of his protesting daughter. The girl, it was gathered, was crying and attempting to free herself from him when her father came in. The father was so angry that he reportedly took a machete and cut Ogunbanwo all over his body, including his penis.

Speaking with P.M.NEWS on his way to the hospital with his police escort, the accused said the girl was his friend and that they lived in the same area.
