The police in Lagos, on Thursday, arraigned a 37-year-old security guard, Idris Hamisu, before an Ikeja Magistrate Court over an alleged sexual assault on his employer’s daughter.
The defendant, who resides at No. 4 Yetunde Adesola St., Igando, Lagos, is standing trial for sexual assault. However, he pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The Prosecutor, Insp. Samuel Mishozunnu, told the court that the offence was committed on June 12 at No. 4 Yetunde Adesola St., Igando, Lagos.

The offence, according to him, contravenes Section 263 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
The Magistrate, Mrs. F.D. Hughes, granted the defendant bail in the sum of N200,000, with two sureties in like sum.
Hughes, thereafter, adjourned the case to July 18 for mention.
