Court Remands Fake Doctor For Allegedly Causing Woman’s Death
A Magistrate Court in Iyaganku Ibadan, on Wednesday ordered the remand of a fake doctor, Moyosore Johnson, in a Correctional Centre for allegedly causing the death of a woman, Badirat Adebayo.
Johnson, 55-year-old, whose address was not provided, was arraigned on a four-count charge bordering on conspiracy and accelerating cause of death.
Magistrate Kausarat Ayofe did not take the plea of the defendant for lack of jurisdiction, and directed the police to return the case file to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) for advice.
Ayofe adjourned the case until March 27, for mention.
Earlier, the Prosecutor, Inspector Segun Adegboye, told the court that the defendant committed the offences on July 5, 2024, at about 10.00 a.m., at Apata Igbala Hospital Iseyin, Oyo State.
Adegboye alleged that the fake doctor unlawfully accelerated the cause of the death of 26 year old woman, by carrying out surgery on her.
He alleged that the defendant removed Adebayo’s womb, which led to her death.
According to the prosecutor, the offences contravene Sections 516 and 319 of the Criminal Laws of Oyo State, 2000.
