Girl Arranges Friend’s Gang-Rape To Punish Her
Police in Lagos have arrested a 20-year-old lady, who
admitted to setting up her friend to be gang raped after a misunderstanding between
them. The victim (names withheld) was reportedly ambushed by six armed men,
suspected to be cultists, at about 8p.m., around Olaosebikan Street in Somolu
area of Lagos.
The gunmen, said to have earlier propositioned her, which
she rejected, took turns on her for over four hours inside an apartment at
Elewure’s House, around Bajulaiye Compound, where she was taken. The suspected
cultists, it was gathered, accused the victim, a computer operator, of
accepting a member of a rival cult group as a lover.
The victim, who gave the names of the suspects to policemen
at Alade Division, said two of them saw her off to a street close to hers, from
where she walked home.
It was gathered that during investigation, the victim’s
friend, identified as Vera, allegedly masterminded the incident and was
arrested last Saturday. Police sources hinted that Vera admitted to the claim,
saying she did it out of bitterness.
The police source said: “She said it was after an argument
that she threatened to deal with the victim. A few days later, the victim was
raped.
“The victim will be invited here tomorrow (Thursday), where
both of them will sit face-to-face, during the interrogation section.
“We are also on the trail of the suspected rapists.
Thereafter, they will all be charged to court. Currently, the victim is in good
condition after undergoing treatment.”
