Detectives are now on the trail of a 45-year-old commercial motorcyclist, Laolu Omogunwa, for allegedly raping a pregnant woman identified simply as Sade Jawo at Ago Akingboye in Irele local govt area of Ondo State.

The 30-year-old pregnant mother  reportedly hired the services of the suspect to carry her from Ajagba to the farm settlement on a bike to purchase kegs of red palm oil.

Narrating her ordeal, the victim said Omogunwa lured her on the way into another route on the pretence that she will get palm oil cheaper in the area than where she intended going.

According to her, the suspect drove her into a lonely bush where he suddenly stopped on the way,  dragged her into the bush, strangled her, dispossessed her of her phone and the sum of N150,000, before raping her until she became unconscious.

She added that Omogunwa only left her thinking she was dead until she was revived by rain after several hours.

 The Hope Metro gathered that when the family did not see her when she was expected back home, they had to organize a search party which later discovered her where she was struggling to crawl to the road.

It was learnt that it took her about 48 hours to regain consciousness after loosing the pregnancy as a result of excessive bleeding.

Speaking on the incident, the Ahaba of Ajagba, Oba Adesayo Ajibade said,” It is a taboo to have sex with women on the bare ground in Ikale land.
