A 12-year old student of Command Day Secondary School, Oshodi, Gbolohan Hart jumped from a building in Greenhill Estate, Ifako, Lagos to evade molestation from the hands of his Aunt.

His Aunt, Mrs Aina Odetayo, a legal practitioner, (who claimed to be working with Muiz Banire Chambers) allegedly mixed pepper in hot water and poured it on him.

She then burnt his arms and legs with a peppered hot knife, tied him down in a room, locked doors and windows to the room and left him to suffer all because according to her, he stole five hundred naira (#500) that was meant for the purchase of cooking gas.

Dying because of lack of ventilation, the boy said he cut the rope with which he was tied, climbed into the ceiling and jumped down from the one-storey building to escape.

Visibly hungry and unkempt, Master Gbolahan sustained a broken leg, broken teeth and a deep cut to his jaw.
