Medical Test Shows Repeated Forceful Penetration – Doctor

The trial of Olufemi Olaleye, the doctor alleged to have defiled his 15-year-old wife’s niece continued on Wednesday as a medical doctor from the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Oyebimpe Akinbunmi, told the court that the pattern of injury on the victim’s private parts showed repeated forceful penetration.

Akinbunmi, the fourth witness in the case before an Ikeja Special Offences Court, examined the victim after the matter was referred by the Gender Section of the Lagos State Police Command.

Olaleye, the Managing Director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, is facing two counts of defilement and sexual assault by penetration.

In her testimony, Akinbunmi said medical tests revealed that the victim was sexually abused by the defendant, adding that based on the history the survivor provided, “the major findings were in the genital area.

The hymen was angular, which means ring-shaped and slightly estrogenised.

There was a notch at 9 ‘O’clock position on the hymen and transection at one ‘O’clock position at the hymen. The vaginal was also unduly visible more than one-third of the lower vagina.

“The pattern of injury that I saw was consistent with repeated forceful penetrative injury into the vagina, an ongoing forceful long penetrative injury to the v*gina was what I documented and reported to the centre.”

The witness further said the victim narrated how she was abused.

“She said he usually called her in the middle of the night when others were sleeping to come downstairs and that he would remove his trousers and ask her to suck his pen**. He sometimes also puts his finger in her private parts.

“Then, she (the victim) said he also applied something like lubricant and he would penetrate her private parts with his pen**.

This she said happened about four times and he would also give her pills and threaten her that she would die if she told anyone,” Akinbunmi added.

Justice Ramon Oshodi adjourned the case till January 26, 2023.
