Earlier, the Prosecuting Counsel, Insp. Zacheaus Folorunsho, alleged that the defendant was caught in the act in Adeta area of Ilorin.
He urged the court to remand the defendant because the case was still being investigated.
Folorunsho said the offences contravened Sections 348 and 287 of the Penal Code Law.
The defendant, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.
