Three men have been arrested in Lagos State, Nigeria, on charges of defiling a 15-year-old girl. The suspects, identified as Vincent Omar (22), Leonard Nwodo (30), and Henry Chiokwe (17), were apprehended following a report filed by the victim’s mother at the Festac police division.

According to the police report, the victim met Vincent Omar in 2022 when she was 13 years old and began a relationship with him. The victim alleged that Omar coerced her into performing sexual acts and threatened to share her nude photos online if she refused.

In May 2024, the victim met Omar’s friend, Leonard Nwodo, and was also lured into a sexual relationship with him. Nwodo also threatened to expose the victim’s intimate photos.
Additionally, the victim claimed that Henry Chiokwe contacted her and made similar threats.

The suspects were arraigned in court following their arrest. Further details about the charges and the ongoing legal proceedings are expected to be released soon.
