The Commissioner of Police, Delta State, CP Wale Abass, has directed that the case be immediately transferred to the state Criminal and Investigation Department (SCID) for further meticulously executed investigation.

The Area Command, Agbor, had earlier concluded its investigation and charged the case to court.

Last week, one Mrs Joy Chukwudi reported that while she was bathing her 4-year-old daughter, she discovered a blood stain in the private part of her daughter.

Upon questioning, her daughter kept stating that her uncle, aged 46, the proprietor of the Great Leader International School, where the child is schooling, used school scissors to cut her on her private part.

Upon receipt of this complaint, the Area Commander, Agbor, detailed a team of investigators to proceed to the scene of the alleged crime.

Innocent Ezeukwu, who doubles as the owner of the school and also the only male teacher in the school, was arrested and taken into custody.

A preliminary investigation by the command led to the issuance of a medical report, and the initiation of an identification parade exercise where Ezeukwu, when placed amongst random men, was identified by the victim as the person who allegedly defiled her

According to the CP, “The command is aware of a viral publication posted on various social media handles on the alleged defilement of a 4yr old child (Name withheld) by one Innocent Ezeukwu’m’, aged 46, the proprietor of the Great Leader International school.

“The medical report affirmed that there was “no hymen visualized” in the victim’s private part,” he disclosed.

The CP assures members of the public and the victim’s family that justice will be served; he further appealed to the public to remain calm while the investigation is ongoing.
