The Ondo State Police Command has arrested a robber, identified as Tosin Omoniyi, who attempted to rape the wife of his victim.

Omoniyi was reportedly arrested while attempting to rape the woman after robbing her family of valuables in their house at Idanre community, in Idanre Local Government Area of the state.

According to the police, the suspect entered into the apartment through the window around 1am and dispossessed the couple of their money and other valuables.

The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in the state, Mrs Funmilayo Odunlami, who paraded the suspect on Wednesday, said he would soon be charged to court.

“It was in the process of trying to rape the wife of the man that he (husband) summoned courage and descended on the accused, apprehended the robber with the help of neighbours, and dispossessed him of his gun,” the PPRO said.

Odunlami added that the suspect’s 55-year-old mother, Mrs Tale Akinlabi, was also arrested for allegedly helping him to keep stolen items.

Speaking to newsmen, Omoniyi, who claimed to be a commercial motorcyclist, said he operated alone and had successfully robbed many people in the town.

He said: “I entered through the window and met the couple in the house; I ordered them to bring out all the money and valuables in their house. They were able to bring out just N50,000, but I asked the woman to go and bring more valuables from her room because I was not satisfied with the cash.

“I followed the wife into her room to search the room and I asked her to lie on the bed and she obeyed because I was holding a gun. The woman shouted that I was about to rape her and her husband rushed in with four other men.

“I was overpowered before I could go for my gun because I had dropped the gun on the ground while I was trying to sleep with the woman. They beat me up, seized the gun and handed me over to the police.”

His mother, Akinlabi, however, denied aiding him, saying she knew nothing about his criminal activities.

“I know him as an Okada rider, but I was surprised to hear he was into armed robbery. He came to me that he wanted to buy Okada and wanted me to follow him there, which I did and he had been using the Okada since then

“I asked him the source of the money he used to buy the Okada, but he told me it was from his monthly contributions and I did not have any cause to doubt him since he was working as a commercial motorcycle rider.

“I was surprised when I learnt at the hospital about his arrest for armed robbery and attempt to rape. I was in the hospital because my husband had been sick for some time and I was with him.

“I was surprised when the police said I had been aiding him in his robbery operations. I had six children for his father, but he is the only surviving child of the marriage before I decided to leave his father,” Akinlabi said.
