The Ondo State Police Command has debunked a viral social media report alleging that a child, Oluwatosin Abosede, was sexually assaulted by one Jimmy, clarifying that the incident is not recent.

In a statement posted on its official X handle on Thursday, the Command said the alleged assault occurred around July 2019, contrary to claims suggesting it was a current case.

According to the police, the matter was reported at the time and promptly investigated by operatives of the Command.

The statement added that the suspect was arrested following investigations and subsequently charged to court in line with due process.

The Police urged the public to verify information before sharing it on social media to avoid misinformation and unnecessary panic.
