suspect, Ahmed Adeleke, 29, who disguised as a worshiper, attended the

corner of the church, was heard shouting that she had been attacked.
When curious members got to her, it was discovered that her head had
been smashed. She was said to have pointed to the direction where the
suspect took. Some church members went in the direction and reportedly
found the suspect changing his clothes. He was said to have denied the
allegation. But on further observation, the white garment which he
pulled off was discovered to be blood stained. Parading the suspect
yesterday at the Police Officers Mess, Ikeja, the Lagos State Command

The
suspect, however, denied being a Badoo member. He said: “I was a
Muslim, but later converted to Christianity. I live at 9, Ojokoro
Street, Agric. I was invited to worship there that night by a senior
colleague, Kehinde, at the tailoring shop where I work.”

However,
asked if Kehinde had come to identify him, he shook his head, saying:
“How would she come? She may be afraid of being arrested as well.”
