OAU Student’s Murder: Court Sentences Adedoyin To Death By Hanging

The Osun State Chief Judge, Justice Oyebola Ojo, on Tuesday, declared that the owner of Hilton Hotel Ile-Ile, Osun State, Dr Rahman Adedoyin, is culpable in the murder of Timothy Adegoke, a postgraduate student of Obafemi Awolowo University.

The death sentence was issued by Osun State Chief Judge, Justice Oyebola Ojo.

Adedoyin was found guilty of the murder of OAU student identified as Adegoke.

Recall that Adegoke was reportedly murdered when he lodged in the hotel on November 6, 2021, and his corpse was found in a shallow grave close to the hotel.

Police last year charged the suspects at the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court but the case was struck out and redirected to Osun State, where the incident happened.

The suspects were arraigned on an 11-count charge of murder, indecent interference with a….dead body, administration of extrajudicial oath and alteration to conceal evidence.
