The pregnant woman, Rahemat Lateef, who was reported missing and due for delivery while on her way to the State General Hospital, Ijaiye, Abeokuta, has been found.
Rahemat, who was believed to have been kidnapped, was never abducted, rather, she fled to Kwara State to avoid her husband’s fury after having a miscarriage.
DAILY POST gathered that Rahemat was frustrated due to repeated miscarriages and had fabricated the kidnapping story.
Her husband, Ogunbunmi Lateef, had reported receiving a WhatsApp message notifying him of his wife’s abduction by unknown persons.
However, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Omolola Odutola, on Monday, provided an update on the incident and said Rahemat was found in Kwara State with her father.
She stated that the command’s Anti-Kidnapping Unit had begun tracking her until she reappeared.
Odutola said, “Rahemat Lateef, who was reported abducted by her husband, was never kidnapped. Instead, she planned her journey to Kwara State to escape her husband’s wrath, following repeated miscarriages.
“She fabricated the story herself, traveled to Kwara State, and was far from being kidnapped. After experiencing a miscarriage and becoming frustrated due to its repeated occurrence, she feared her husband’s reaction and orchestrated the narrative. The Anti-Kidnapping Team had begun tracking her until she reappeared.
“She is now under medical attention and is safe,” she added.
