UK-based Nigerian healthcare worker escapes jail over child sex abuse film

20160119-132855.jpg

Amudat Popoola, 50, played the 6 minute video to her coworkers at Newham University Hospital on her mobile phone in April, 2015 and it depicted a young girl aged 2 to 3, performing a sex act on a

man in his 20s or 30s.

The day before, Popoola had asked for the film be sent to her via WhatsApp after being shown it by Yaodele Salami, 48. Her coworkers were so shocked by the footage that a student nurse immediately reported it to police who arrested Salami and Popoola.

They both appeared in court yesterday. In what he described as an exceptional case, Judge Martyn Zeidman QC, told Popoola and Salami that they both held a responsible, important position in a hospital and needed to show high standards of behavior.

He added: “It seems that once the image had been received you both sought to use it, not for sexual pleasure but to demonstrate the evils of the world in which we live. Your motive was very different from someone who just does it for sexual purposes.

Salami was handed a 12-month prison term, suspended for 12 months, for possessing, distributing and showing an indecent image of a child. Popoola was handed a 14-month sentence for possessing and showing the same image, also suspended for 12 months.

Both will also have to sign the sex offenders’ register for 10 years and face the end of their careers…. kudos to UK judges for beginning to learn 4rm their 9ja counterparts…..
