He was remanded after he was arraigned before the court for allegedly assaulting a woman, Adijatu Sanni.
Adijatu also claimed that Edet did not only touch her breast, but also fondled her, including her private part thereby debasing her as a woman.
The embittered woman lamented that since Edet has touched her breast and private part, he has used her to satisfy his sexual desire without her consent.
She went to Trinity Police Station and reported that Edet assaulted her.
The police arrested and charged him to Apapa Magistrate’s court for assault under Sections 358 and 355 of the criminal code cap 17 Vol. 2 Laws of Lagos State of Nigeria.
When the charge was read to him, he pleaded not guilty.
The presiding Magistrate, Mrs. A K Shonubi, granted the accused bail.
He was remanded in Kirikiri Prison Apapa, pending when he will fulfil his bail conditions.
Edet was alleged to have assaulted Adijatu by touching her breast and her private part while she was going home after work. PM News
