Crime / Man Who Sold His Girlfriend's Daughter For Sex Up To 1000 Times Is Jailed. by holuwertobex(m): 12:30am On May 22, 2018
On her 15th birthday she was dressed in a short skirt, had make-up applied and was forced into prostitution by her mother and step-father.
The pair had pressured her that the family would be homeless and left to starve if she did not sell herself for sex.


The 26-year-old step-father who kept his partner's teenage daughter as a prostitute and sold her body up to 1000 times has now been jailed.
Avneesh Sehgal was sentenced to four years and eight months behind bars when he appeared at the High Court in Auckland on Tuesday.
He had earlier plead guilty to three charges of dealing in a person under 18 for sexual exploitation and receiving earnings from commercial sexual services provided by an underage person.


The victim, who has permanent name suppression, escaped her nightmare in 2016 and fled to the police in Whangarei.

Last month, her mother Kasmeer Lata was jailed to six years and 11 months for her part in the case.
The slave dealing conviction for her treatment of her daughter is one of just three in New Zealand's legal history, since the crime was written into the Crimes Act in 1961.
The victim and her mother arrived in New Zealand in 2014 on visitor visas from Fiji.


Towards the end of that year Lata met Avneesh Sehgal and they entered into a relationship, court documents said.


Shortly after they began their relationship they moved into a house in Papatoetoe and Lata asked the victim if she would work as a prostitute in order to raise money for the family to start a business and to have food to eat.


The daughter initially refused. Lata told her they would starve and would be homeless and she would only have to sell herself for sex for one month.
Sehgal and Lata advertised the girl in the New Zealand Herald as one of two "HOT SEXY busty Indian girls" and said she was 18-years-old. She was only 14 at the time.
Those advertisements were paid by Sehgal.


On the victim's 15th birthday, she was sold for sex for the first time.
She was dressed up in a short skirt, had her hair straightened and had make-up applied.


Despite continually expressing she did not want to go through with the arrangement, her own mother coached her on how to have sex.
A man paid $200 to have sex that day and he then became a regular at the home, arriving every two weeks to have sex with the teen.


As Lata did not have a valid New Zealand visa, she was unable to open a bank account and therefore Sehgal's bank account was used to deposit all of the cash earnings.
Her mother continued to organise men to come to their home.


When neighbours started to get suspicious that the house was operating as a brothel, the family moved to Takanini.


Sehgal and Lata continued to arrange "appointments" for the victim, but this time it would be in motels or clients' homes.


During this time, the victim was also photographed by New Zealand Girls - an online escort agency.


The victim was required to UnCloth and put oil on her body. Those photos were then put online and she was advertised as "Tipsy".


Those advertisements were paid for by Sehgal and he deposited money into the New Zealand Girls account three times.


In the 18-month-period the teen was forced to be a sex slave, she was sold about 1000 times or about five times a day, the court heard.


She made about $100,000 in earnings, most of which was kept by Sehgal and Lata.


Sehgal would often drive the victim to and from these "appointments", accompanied by Lata.


The victim read out a victim impact statement during her mother's sentencing and told the court how she now suffered from regular pain as a result of her trauma and had ongoing mental health issues.


She told the court how she found it difficult to meet new people, particularly men and she had become excessively cautious in their company.


The victim no longer trusts anyone, including her family.


SENTENCING


At the sentencing on Tuesday, crown prosecutor Natalie Walker said Sehgal was an integral part of the offending and it was likely without him it would not have occurred.


Walker told the court Sehgal continued to deny the offending and he was arrested at the airport trying to flee the country back to India.
Defence lawyer Graeme Newell said Sehgal did not drive the victim around every time, there was a taxi driver involved.


He also said Sehgal was not essential for the offending to occur.
Once he has served his jail time Sehgal would be deported to India and Newell asked Justice Lang to not impose a minimum jail sentence.
In his sentencing Justice Lang said there was no dispute Sehgal played a far lesser role in the offending than the victim's mother.


"Nevertheless you played a significant role," Justice Lang said.
Justice Lang said the ordeal had a devastating effect on the victim.
"The effects of the offending will last for her forever," he said.


Justice Lang said the breach of trust by Sehgal was not as extreme as that by the girl's mother.


"But, you must have known the gross breach of trust that was been committed against her."


In a pre-sentencing report Justice Lang said Sehgal expressed some remorse but he did not consider it to be sincere
"If your remorse was genuine I would have had no doubt you would have expressed it much earlier than today."

Justice Lang gave no discount for remorse.

Sehgal was sentenced to four years and eight months and will have to serve a minimum of two years and four months' jail.

Celebrities / Banky W Bought A Car For His Uber Driver Explain How He Has Been Good To Him by holuwertobex(m): 2:00pm On Apr 05, 2018
Nigeria Singer and actor Banky W who posted on his page explain how his uber driver has been good to him, so he have some gift for him.

Read below:

One of my favourite quotes is the one that says: "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a meal. Teach a man to fish and you've fed him for life." I believe very strongly in putting the people around me in a position to be more successful. My driver@lado212 is an awesome guy.. and I wanted him to be able to earn more than just his salary & tips, so I got a small car and we put it on Uber, that way instead of him sitting around all day waiting for me while I'm in the studio, office, or on set, he can hit the road and generate income for us.. and then we split it at the end of the month. It's worked so well that I am now really hoping to continue to do this for more of the young people around me, as God gives me grace. 
I'm so excited and honoured to be@ubernigeria's first Brand Ambassador. I genuinely love the service and I've been an avid rider for years - the convenience of it just made my life so much easier, home and abroad. I also love that it helps create employment for young people.. and I want to encourage more car owners, if they can, to use the service as a way to help more people around them and earn money on the side at the same time. And even if all you ever do is use an Uber as your designated driver when you're out having drinks.. it makes too much sense. You should just #BankOnUber. I am, and I do �������‍♂️ hitng #brandambassador

Religion / Man Reportedly Resurrected By Winners Pastor by holuwertobex(m): 11:42pm On Apr 02, 2018
A man, Luiz Fidelis , who had been referred to the LUTH mortuary was reportedly resurrected by a pastor with the Living Faith Tabernacle Church, popularly known as Winners Chapel.

Writing on their Facebook , the church told the story of Fidelis, who was reported to have vomited 2 cowries after the Pastor poured some anointing oil into his mouth.

Read Fidelis’ story below:

Luiz Fidelis was referred to the mortuary by the officials of LUTH-Lagos University Teaching Hospital,after being taken to other three major hospitals in the state. His Area pastor ordered for him to be brought home, after which he called on the God of his father Bishop David Oyedepo, he placed the prophetic mantle round his neck and poured some anointing oil inside his mouth. Immediately, he vomited two cowries and that was how he was restored. Fidelis is now walking gallantly in the lord. Bishop David Oyedepo while placing a seal of perfection on the former patient’s life,declared that anything dying or dead around you shall be restored back to life by the resurrection power of Jesus Christ.
Jesus is Lord!

Music/Radio / Download Music Mayorkun – “bobo” Ft Davido by holuwertobex(m): 1:35am On Mar 26, 2018
Star boy of the Davido-led music company, Mayorkun debuts his independent single for the year 2018 titled ‘Bobo’.

‘Bobo’ is Mayorkun’s post-birthday present to his teeming fans who have in no small ways contributed to the impressing success of the star boy’s growing music craft by showing their unanimous and unimpeded allegiance to him.

Mayorkun had a particularly fantastic 2017 with the release of chart-topping singles, a sold out music tour that saw him peddle his sound gospel to select locations around Africa and largely the world, not forgetting his recognition on a variety of award platforms. He intends to continue his streak of efforted wins starting with this fresh collaborative feat with DMW label boss and leader of the 30 Billion Gang, Davido.

Social media first aroused curiosity when members of DMW and 30BG littered the online space with captions that read “na money be fine bobo”. Mayorkun would later confirm suspicions with an official announcement of the brand new single on his 24th birthday being March 23.

‘Bobo’ ultimately is a smooth-tempoed and groovy musical finish with heavy contributions from the talents of madly raved producer, Killertunes, Lush Beats, and the incredible Tee-Y Mix.

Celebrities / Runtown’s Record Label Management Drags Him To Court Again by holuwertobex(m): 3:43pm On Mar 19, 2018
Singer Runtown has again been dragged to court by his record label, Eric many.


According to reports, the label filed an injunction at a Federal High court against the singer for breach of contract.


Runtown was served the court papers a few days back with a statement that partly reads:


‘Runtown has been deliberately breaching his contract with us (Eric Many) for a while and despite our many appeals to him he has refused to bulge.


He went for a show in Las Vegas since January 13th, 2018 and has since decided to withdraw all obligations of his contract. He has steadily been recording an album without the consent and approval of his record label’.


According to the statement of claim by Eric Many filed at court;
“a Recording Agreement was made between the Plaintiff and the Defendant dated 22nd June 2016, the copyright and other intellectual property and cognate rights and legal positions and protections applicable to all works done by the Defendant during an initial period of two years covered by the Agreement, is vested in the Plaintiff.


The Plaintiff will rely on a copy of the said Recording Agreement at trial. 7. Under the Agreement, parties recognize and acknowledge the sum of N114,456,670.00 (One Hundred and Fourteen Million, Four Hundredand Fifty Six Thousand,Six Hundred and Seventy Naira) as “Prior Investment”, representing the sum invested by the Plaintiff into the development of the Defendant’s musical works and records under the defunct ‘Artiste Agreement’, precursor to the ‘Recording Agreement”.


The label aslo issues a press statemnt earlier today which reads thus;


“He’s recording with artists like Del B without the written approval of the label and without an Eric Many appointee at the point of recording as agreed in our contract.


Runtown has also been appearing in venues and collecting appearance fees without the approval of the label and also performing in private shows without the label’s consent which contravenes clause 4.4.1 of his record deal which states that ‘the Defendant(Runtown) can only engage in recording, collaborating or performing with other artistes for third parties or other record companies upon proper notification in advance to the Plaintiff.


Upon this notification, the Plaintiff would then enter into an agreement with the collaborating artiste or his record company to ensure that the Plaintiff and the Defendant receive proper credit, legal/copyright protection and compensation for the collaborative work”.
The label also stated that the singer still owes millions of Naira;


‘Hundreds of millions in Naira from the Lamborghini Gallardo super-fast car which he still has to pay back to the label and and also an album that must be released through the right channels.


He has been doing numerous collaborations with several artists without getting the written approval of the label and as a result, no royalties have come back to the label from any of these collaborations. He has been warned severally about this on numerous occasions but he refused to listen, so we as the label had to go to court to stop him from these dubious actions’.


‘Eric Many has also fired Ifeanyi Nwunne as Runtown’s manager. He is more of a drug addict that smokes marijuana round the clock. A new manager will be appointed soonest’.


Eric Many in its statement of claim is seeking the sum of
“N65 MILLION being General Damages against the Defendant (Runtown) in favour of the Plaintiff for infringement of the Plaintiff’s copyright to the collaborative musical works “Call Me” and “Weekend” both of which featured the Defendant as well as N5 MILLION as costs of this action”


“Eric Many has chosen to hold back on anything pertaining to Runtown,till further investigations. This means that anyone who engages Runtown without a written approval from Eric Many, signed by the chairman, will be sued heavily.”
