The Ogun State Police Command has taken into custody 28-year-old Ogunlana Yemisi for allegedly assaulting her husband, Idowu Adebowale, 31, with a sharp object.
The spokesperson for the state police command, Omolola Odutola, disclosed this in a statement sent to journalists on Monday.
Adebowale was said to have reported to the police on Monday that his wife attacked him with a sharp object around 4:30 am on October 15 during a minor disagreement.
He was said to have shown the police officers the deep cut on his genitalia which he alleged his wife inflicted on him.
Odutola explained further that, “Following this report, detectives promptly visited the scene, where the suspect was arrested.
“The wife denied the allegations during questioning, but given the severity of the injury and the length of time the complainant had not sought medical help, he was provided with a medical form and advised to go to the hospital.
“The suspect is currently in custody, and the case will be forwarded to the SCID in Abeokuta for further investigation.
“This information will be given detailed investigation, as it is a suspect case of uncontrollable anger, leading to domestic violence.”
