A
housewife, Taye Akinbolade, has been charged before an Okitipupa
Magistrates’ Court in Ondo State for allegedly slashing the breast of
her husband’s lover.
28-year-old Akinbolade committed the offence
after allegedly catching her husband having sex with his lover on their
matrimonial bed.
Akinbolade, a trader, residing at No. 5, Beke St., Ikoya in Okitipupa, is standing trial on a charge of assault. She has, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The
Prosecutor, Insp. Zedekiah Orogbemi, told court that the accused on
November 25 at about 8:30 p.m. at No. 5 Beke St., Ikoya, Okitipupa, met a
woman, Imisi Michael, having sex on the matrimonial bed of the accused
Orogbemi
said that the accused, who had been trailing Michael before that day,
beat her to pulp before using a new razor blade to slash her breast,
face and head.
He said that the husband of the accused, one Tunde
Akinbolade, who initially ran away when the fight ensued between the two
women, later rushed Michael to hospital.
The prosecutor said the offence contravened Section 338 of the Criminal Code Cap.37, Vol.1, Laws of Ondo State, 2006.
The
Magistrate, Mr. Banji Ayeomoni, granted the accused bail in the sum of
N500,000 with one surety
