Police Confirm Receipt and Medical Examination of Complainant
DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, the Police Public Relations Officer for Ogun State, confirmed that Mirabel was formally received at the police station following her public allegations. The teenager was immediately taken to a recognized medical facility for thorough examination to verify the claims she had made regarding the alleged assault.

The police spokesperson highlighted that Mirabel's cooperation has been essential for advancing the case through proper legal channels.
Welfare Prioritized Through Ministry Handover
In a significant development, DSP Babaseyi confirmed that consideration for Mirabel's welfare and support needs led to her being released to the Ogun State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development. This decision reflects the police command's commitment to balancing investigative requirements with the complainant's wellbeing.
"The Ministry has undertaken responsibility for her care and has assured the Command that she will be made available whenever required as investigations continue," the police spokesperson explained. This arrangement ensures that Mirabel receives professional support services while remaining accessible to investigators as needed.
Professional Handling and Public Appeal
The Ogun State Police Command emphasized that the matter is being handled "with professionalism, sensitivity, and diligence" throughout the investigative process. Authorities have specifically urged the public to refrain from speculation that could potentially compromise the investigation or affect the parties involved.
"We ask that the investigation be allowed to run its full course. Further updates will be provided as necessary," DSP Babaseyi stated, reinforcing the police commitment to transparent communication as the case develops. The collaboration between law enforcement and social welfare agencies represents a coordinated approach to addressing both legal and humanitarian aspects of the situation.
Ongoing Investigation and Inter-Agency Cooperation
The Ogun State Police Command continues to stress that the case remains under active investigation, with no conclusions reached at this stage. The partnership between police investigators and the Ministry of Women Affairs ensures that while legal procedures advance, the complainant receives appropriate care and support services.
This inter-agency cooperation model demonstrates how Nigerian law enforcement can work alongside social service providers to address complex cases involving vulnerable individuals. The police have committed to providing further updates as the investigation progresses through established legal channels.
