JUST-IN: Appeal Court Overturns Life Sentence, Acquits Dr. Olaleye Of Sexual Assault

The Court of Appeal sitting in Lagos has discharged and acquitted Dr. Olufemi Olaleye, Medical Director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, of defilement and sexual assault by penetration of a minor.

Dr. Olaleye had been convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment by a lower court on a two-count charge. However, he appealed the decision, challenging his conviction and sentence.

The Court of Appeal, in a judgment delivered on Friday, upheld Dr. Olaleye’s appeal and acquitted him of the charges.

It would be recalled that the court had in October reserved judgment in the appeal filed by Dr. Olaleye.

Earlier, Justice Rahman Oshodi of the Lagos State Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence Court sentenced Dr. Olufemi Olaleye to life imprisonment for sexually assaulting his wife’s 16-year-old niece.
