Ms Taiwo Bello, the mother of the child, Ibrahim, had left him in the room while sleeping and stepped out to wash her clothes behind the house at Iyana Kajola, Mile 2, Abeokuta, only to return to discover that he was missing.

The woman raised alarm which attracted a lot of people and the police was informed.

A full scale investigation into the case yielded positive result when Falilat was sighted with the baby at Ilewo Orile and was promptly arrested.
