Old soldier gets life sentence for raping 10-year-old step daughter. An ogun state High Court sitting at Isabo, Abeokuta, Ogun state, yesterday sentenced a retired soldier, Alabi Ibrahim, to life imprisonment for raping his 10-year-old step-daughter and infecting her with Human Immunodeficiency Virus, HIV. In his judgement, Justice Abiodun Akinyemi said the accused faced a one-count charge of having sexual intercourse with a child. The offence, he said, was contrary to Section 3 of Child Rights Law. The Judge said the court was convinced that the allegation against the accused had been proved beyond reasonable doubt. It would be recalled that the convict committed the crime in 2012 in his home, where himself, the victim, and her mother lived. It led to his subsequent arrest and trial, following the intervention of Ogun State chapter of Child Protection Network, CPN, an umbrella body of non-governmental organisations, NGOs.
