A
lady believed to be in her early twenties has been raped to an unconscious
state by four men around Cemetery Road in Warri, Delta State. The victim, who
is now receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital, was said to have boarded
a taxi cab with four male passengers from Odion Road to her residence in Aguowe
Street, Off Mac Demot Road.
Daily Sun gathered that the driver suddenly took a different
direction towards Cemetery Road to the chagrin of the victim. It was further
learnt that the victim challenged the driver of the taxi but the other
passengers drew a dagger and threatened to kill her if she raised any alarm.
They, thereafter, drove down to a storey building on the
Cemetery Road where the miscreants had a field day raping the victim until she
became unconscious.
However, luck ran out on them as the matter was reported to the
Quick Response Squad of the Delta State Police Command in Warri, who swung into
action and arrested one Akpofure, Seih and Obrakpo all of Nos. 24, 64 and 66,
Cemetery Road, Warri. Public Relations Officer of the command, ASP Famous
Ajieh, who confirmed the arrests in Asaba yesterday, stated that the police
were currently on the trail of the fourth suspect, one Ebeme.
Ajieh said the arrested suspects had confessed to the crime, adding
that one Black Berry phone used by the suspects in recording the rape action
was recovered.
