•Cultists
Two suspected cultists identified as Precious (aka Pere) and Chidiebere (aka B2K), on Wednesday, kidnapped a 14-year-old girl (name withheld), at about 10am, and took her to an apartment in a three storey building located at National Street, Mile 3 Diobu, Port Harcourt, Rivers State, where they gang-raped the teenager.
It was gathered that the suspected cultists threatened the teenage girl that she would be killed if she refused to comply or disclose what transpired to anybody, reports Daily Sun.
An anonymous source disclosed that the apartment where the teenage girl was gang raped, belongs to one of the landlord’s sons involved in the dastardly act.
It was also gathered that Precious, who is popularly known as Pere, returned from prison recently. The mother of the victim, who did not want her name in print or recorded due to stigmatisation, confirmed the incident to our correspondent.
In an interview with journalists, Vice Chairperson, Centre for Basic Rights Protection And Accountability Campaign, Rivers State, Jennifer Stephens, said the organisation condemned, in its entirety, the alleged abduction and gang rape of the 14-year-old girl by the two men.
Stephens stated that more disheartening was the revelation that the girl was also deflowered in the process. She revealed that from available information, the latest incident was not the first time the suspects were perpetrating the act in the same building.
She said: “Now that the matter has been reported to the police, we call on them to expedite action to arrest the fleeing suspects to ensure justice is done and seen to have been done in the circumstance. We equally call on the police to invite the landlord or landlady or whosoever that is in charge of the building for questioning, as we await the arrest of the suspects.”
Meanwhile, the matter has been reported to the Nkpolu Police Division, Mile 3 Diobu, Port Harcourt, where the teenage girl was issued a medical form and is currently taking treatment at an undisclosed hospital.
