Four teenage boys between the ages of 18 and 19 have been apprehended by the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly raping a 14-year-old girl in Mile 12, Lagos.
The suspects, Wale Badejo, Jubril Yusuf, Olusanya Remi and Wale Oluwafemi allegedly abducted the victim on her way to school and held her for over seven hours taking turns to rape her at Oluwafemi’s house. They also recorded this wicked act and thereafter threatened to kill her if she ever reveals this to anyone.
A member of the victim’s family spoke to the Punch saying this incident occurred on May 30, 2013 but it was until a resident saw the pictures and video on the phone of one of the suspects that the truth came out.
The boys were arrested in Ketu Police Division on June 6 but the case took a sudden twist when they were released without charge. The victim’s mother, Iyabo, said, ‘The families of the suspects have been begging us since the incident occurred and we have decided to let the case go’
