gathered that Tunde Badmus and others now at large gave a ride to Janet  Rufus from Moshalashi bus stop, Alagbado, then, tricked the victim that she was  demon possessed and she must be delivered urgently.

They allegedly succeeded in collecting N3 million from her in the course of  exorcising the demon from her.

Janet also told P.M.NEWS that Badmus, under the pretence of casting out the demon  from  her, had sexual intercourse with her.

However, a few days after the incident, she realised that no demon was exorcised  from her.  Rather, Badmus and his gang succeeded in having sex with her and  dispossessing her of N3 million.

She then reported the matter at the police station. Only Badmus was arrested and  charged to court.
