    The Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency has arrested a man who was said to have physically abused his 11-year-old son for failing to recite the Holy Quran.

    DSVA spokesperson, Joke Ladenegan-Oginni made this known in Lagos on Saturday, saying that, the man has been detained at Meiran Division of the Lagos State Police Command.

    PLATFORM TIMES gathered that the assault on the 11-year-old went viral on social media as his body showed injuries received from belt whips leading to excessive bleeding.

    Ladenegan-Oginni stated that DSVA received a report from concerned citizens on repeated assaults on the child.

    “The agency received a report from a journalist of an 11-year-old male who was physically assaulted by his father.

    “The DSVA gathered that the father meted the assault because the boy had not been able to recite the Holy Quran.

    “Following repeated assaults, the boy has haematuria (blood in urine), two episodes of loss of consciousness, bleeding from the ears and nostrils,” she stated.

    She added that the boy was receiving medical attention facilitated by the Lagos State Ministry of Health and the state’s Primary Health Care Board.

    She, however, advised members of the public to report all cases of abuse, assault, and sexual violence against persons to the agency for justice to be served.
