Rape Allegation: Busola Dakolo rejects court ruling in favor of Fatoyinbo, heads to appeal

THE Celebrity photographer, Busola Dakolo has rejected the court ruling which went in favour of Biodun Fatoyinbo on Thursday, saying that the case was not given any judicial attention but was dismissed because it happened many years ago.

Justice O. A. Musa of the Federal Capital Territory High Court in Abuja in giving the judgment on the suit on alleged rape, held that the matter amounts to injustice and an abuse of judicial process adding that the case is empty and purely sentimental. He also said that the case was aimed more at cruelty than obtaining justice.

In response to the ruling, Dokolo’s lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi, vowed to appeal the ruling.

He said, “We have received several calls after the ruling of the high court of the Federal Capital Territory sitting at Bwari this morning seeking our view on the decision of the court, hence, this statement.
