The report says the victim visited the station to transact business but only met the said presenter who was said to be on duty and therefore invited her into the studio.

They reportedly struck some acquaintance and into the process the suspect tried touching the victim in a rather an uncompromising way which she resisted.

Determined to unleash his unbridled libido on the unprovoked guest, DJ Razzle overpowered and had carnal knowledge of the married woman.
