The Police Command in Ogun State has said it would proceed with the investigation into the allegations of sexual harassment against the Commissioner for Environment, ABIODUN ABUDU-BALOGUN.
The Police Public Relations Officer of the Command, DSP ABIMBOLA OYEYEMI, disclosed that the Commissioner of Police, EDWARD AJOGUN, had ordered that the case be transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department at the Police headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta, the state capital.
The PPRO said the command will go ahead with the case despite the fact that the victim’s family had officially withdrawn the case against the Commissioner.
OYEYEMI said the father of the victim has no locus standi to tell the police that he is no longer pressing charges against the Commissioner because he is not the person that was directly involved in the case.
