TikToker Mirabel Is In ICU, Investigations Ongoing — Police •

The Ogun State Police Command has confirmed that a TikTok user identified as Mirabel is currently receiving treatment in the intensive care unit (ICU) as investigations continue into her allegation of sexual assault.

The command’s Public Relations Officer, Oluseyi Babaseyi, disclosed this on Thursday while appearing on The Morning Brief programme on Daily Flash.

He explained that police established contact with the content creator earlier this week after her viral videos detailing the alleged attack sparked widespread reactions online.

According to him, officers traced her to the Ibafo area before determining that the incident she reported occurred in Ogijo, a border community between Ogun and Lagos states.

“When the DPO in Ibafo met with her, she was taken to the hospital for medical analysis. She wasn’t as stable as necessary, but we ensured the investigation continued.

“As we speak, she is in the intensive care unit getting appropriate care. Her medical well-being is more important to us at this point. When she is stable, we can now continue investigations and get the necessary facts,” Babaseyi said.

He noted that her medical condition remains the immediate priority, stressing that investigators would obtain further details once she is stable enough to provide a comprehensive account.



‘Not Arrested’

The case has generated intense debate on social media, with some users questioning the authenticity of her claims. Responding, Babaseyi urged the public to avoid premature conclusions.

“We advise people not to jump to conclusions based on emotions. We are investigating and will rely on evidence to reach a logical conclusion,” he said, adding that individuals with useful information should come forward.

He confirmed that invitations have been issued to certain individuals but declined to provide specifics, citing the need for discretion.

He also dismissed online claims that Mirabel had been arrested, clarifying that she had filed a complaint and is being treated as a victim.

“She was not arrested by the police. She reported a case and we are investigating. Nothing of such as her arrest happened,” he clarified.

The Force added that anyone found culpable would face prosecution, while false reporting, if established, also carries legal consequences under the law.

“If the allegation is established to be true, the perpetrator will be arrested and charged to court appropriately. If otherwise, the law also addresses giving false information,” he said.

 

Mirabel’s Allegations

Mirabel gained widespread attention on Monday after posting emotional videos alleging she was attacked in her apartment on Sunday, February 15.

She claimed an intruder forced entry, assaulted her, inflicted injuries with a blade and compelled her to ingest a toxic substance.

The TikToker also alleged the Suspect later contacted her via social media.

Following the viral posts and the #StopRapingWomen campaign, the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency initially engaged the matter before jurisdiction shifted to the Ogun police, where the incident reportedly occurred.

Police say the investigation remains active and that updates will be provided as more facts emerge.

They reiterated that the focus for now remains Mirabel’s recovery and a thorough, evidence-based inquiry into the allegations.
