A suspected serial rapist, Olarewaju Idris, notorious for targeting female students of Tai Solarin University of Education, Ijagun, has been arrested by the Ogun State Police Command
The spokesperson for the Ogun State Police Command, Omolola Odutola, told Punch correspondent on Monday that the suspect was tracked down to a popular hotel in Erinwo, Ijebu-Ode, where he was immediately taken into custody on Saturday.
The 31-year-old suspect had allegedly r*ped an 18-year-old female student from the Library and Information Department after meeting her at a lounge in Ijebu Ode.
The police stated that the suspect allegedly abducted the teenager at knifepoint, led her to a secluded area, and brutally assaulted her after approaching her at the nightclub.
Odutola narrated, “At approximately 6:00 am, an 18-year-old survivor arrived at the police station, visibly shaken. She recounted how, around 1:00 am, the suspect approached her at the club and, under the threat of a knife, forcibly dragged her away to a nearby street, where he raped her before fleeing into the darkness.”
The command further revealed that the suspect had committed a similar crime against another TASUED student at a hotel, where he was eventually apprehended by police operatives.
Odutola added, “In a twist, another TASUED student, also a 300-level student, arrived at the station shortly after, reporting a similar horrifying encounter.
“According to her account, between 2:00 AM and 3:30 AM, the same suspect lured her onto a motorcycle and took her to Magun Hotel in Ijebu Ode, where he raped her, leaving severe bruises.”
The command noted that the suspect had since been taken into lawful custody, while the victims were rushed to Ijebu Ode State Hospital for urgent medical attention.
As investigations continued, Odutola assured the public that the police were committed to ensuring justice was served.
