For allegedly trying to steal a year old girl from her parents’
house early this morning, a 31-year old woman is currently being
interrogated by the police at Ajuwon Station for kidnapping.
The suspect, Blessing Aransiola, was caught by the girl’s father, Mr.
Seye Adanri, 34, as she attempted to escape with the girl, Oreoluwa
Adanri.
Narrating the incident this morning at the Ajuwon Police
Station where the suspect was taken to, mother of the girl, Mrs. Adebisi
Adanri, 29, who lives with her husband at 21, Ademola Coker Street,
Alagbole, Ogun State, said she was woken up by the cry of her daughter
in the hands of the suspect around 4.a.m.
“She was trying to
run away when my husband ran after her and caught her. I raised an alarm
to draw neighbours’ attention to the incident and everybody came out to
assist us,” Mrs. Adanri narrated.
She disclosed further that the suspect got into her house by tearing the window net.
“She picked up the baby as she was sleeping on the bed by the window and stole N5,000 kept in a purse,” she added.
But in her statement to the police, Blessing, who said she was homeless, denied stealing the baby and the money.
She
told her interrogators that she was looking for where to sleep when she
saw that there was a verandah near the window of the couple’s house.
“I
was looking for a place to sleep when I saw the verandah. I was trying
to sit down when the net got torn. I was wandering about, I didn’t steal
any baby or money.
Last year November I sustained
injury on my leg and I couldn’t walk properly again. Later, I developed
problems in my eyes and I couldn’t see. Since then I have been moving
about,” she stated.
She disclosed further that she was living
at 5, Modupeola Street, Iju-Ishaga when co-tenants conspired against
her and labelled her a thief, adding that this made the landlord to send
her packing.
“I am not a thief. They accused me of kidnapping
but I am not a kidnapper, I was just wandering about because I have
nowhere to sleep. I did not kidnap any child,” she stated.
A
resident of the area, Labinjo Abayomi, warned that the police at Ajuwon
should not try to cover up the case, adding that residents were ready to
ensure that the suspect was brought to book.
Another resident who
identified himself as Soji Ademuyiwa commended the parents of the girl
for not sleeping with both eyes closed, adding that but for their
vigilance, the suspect would have taken the baby away.
