Ladies should really be careful. Not all guys you meet on the social
media are genuine, especially now that too many chatting services are
springing up here and there. Rough guys are taking advantage, shine your
eyes.
Following her nasty experience in the hands of guys, a
young lady, Elizabeth John Adie, has given oral evidence about how she
was gang-r@péd by a group of men she met through a social networking
site, 2GO.
According to her, the guys picked her in an ash
colour vehicle with unknown registration number to Aso B area where they
threatened her with knives, searched her handbag and took her two
blackberry phones, cash of N8,000 and other foreign currencies, before
raping her.
The case was mentioned at the Upper Area Court,
Mararaba Gurku, Nasarawa State. One of the accused, 22-year-old Agbo
Emmanuel, a school certificate holder has been in police detention since
the incident occurred but was brought to court on February 11, charged
with criminal conspiracy, intimidation, extortion, causing hurt and
rape, all contrary to sections 97, 397, 292, 244, and 283 of the Penal
Code Laws of Nigeria.
According to the police First Information
Report, the victim reported at the ‘A’ Division Police Station, in the
Mararaba area of Nasarawa, close to Abuja state on February 1, 2014,
that on the same day at about 13:30hrs at Aso B, one Agbo Emmanuel and
three others, Bright Ochigbon, Junior Udewenga and Anita, now at large,
conspired and deceived her through the 2GO social network.
Elizabeth said after taking the items from her, the rough guys went
ahead to r@pé her in turns, adding that she had tried to resist but was
cut with a knife by one of them on her right finger. The case continues.
