Police in Ogun State have arrested a 25 year old man Seyi Ajiboye for forcefully having carnal knowledge of a 14 year old girl (Name withheld) who is a down syndrome patient.
The suspect was arrested following a report lodged at Agbado Divisional headquarters by the victim accompanied by her parents on the 8th of March 2019.
