CHILD ABDUCTION : SOTITOBIRE FOUNDER OTHERS REMAND IN PRISON

The Founder and General Overseer of Sotitobire miracle centre Akure, Alfa Babatunde, and some others were today remanded at Olokuta correctional centre  by a Magistrate Court 2 presided over by Magistrate  Charity Adeyanju, as they were standing trial for the abduction of Gold Kolawole. 

Alfa Babatunde, who could not control his emotion burst into tears as he was moved out of the court into the blackmaria.as the case was adjourned till 17th day of January 2020.

According to the charge sheet prepared by the Department of State Security Service (DSS), they have been alleged to have abducted the little boy on November 10, 2019 after a serious conspiracy in the center.

 However, the third count charge on the sheet says that one of the accused persons, Peter Anjorin, on the 10th December destroyed some vital evidences which the DSS had possessed to facilitate its allegation that Babatunde Alfa and his people truly abducted the child. 

While also in the charge sheet says that five other people connected with the case are presently at large.

Counsel to the accused person, Alfa Babatunde, Barrister Olusola Oke said, "There was an arraignment of Alfa Babatunde with some members of the Church before the magistrate on the allegation in respect of a missing child.


 

Also to the contrary we heard in the public domain of kidnapping, they were charged with conspiracy, and aiding kidnapping these are two different situation because if he actually kidnapped it would actually brought to the public that he kidnapped but apparently they have noting against him. Noting as lawyer that strongly believe in the rule of Law, that if the man indeed culpable should be punished. 



The prosecuting counsel, Joshua Dada plea that the suspects be reminded in prison custody pending the conclusion of thorough investigation on the matter.
