The rapist was stripped and beaten to coma by the angry neighbours
A man has been beaten to a state of unconsciousness and stripped n*ked after he was caught r*ping a little girl.
Nemesis caught up with a 32-year-old man identified only as Afolanya as
he was beaten to a state of unconsciousness and stripped naked on
Saturday night for allegedly raping a 13-year-old girl at Iddo-Babota
village, along Airport road, Abuja.
DailyTrust reported that the incident happened around 7:34 p.m. when the
accused allegedly lured the victim with a token and took her to his
room where he allegedly defiled her.
An eyewitness, Ishaku Musa, said the rapist who is a taxi driver took
advantage of the girl when her mother sent her on an errand. After the
mother had waited for hours without seeing her daughter, she decided to
look around when neighbour told her that her child was seen entering
the accused’s room.
He said the mother rushed home to inform one of her sons who immediately
went to the accused’s room where he caught him in the act with the girl
and raised an alarm.
He said the accused, whose pieces of furniture were destroyed, was beaten to a state of coma.
Musa said the girl’s father who travelled for the Christmas was called
on phone by the son, and he directed that the girl be taken to a clinic
for test to confirm if the accused defiled her.
“In fact, the man was beaten to a state of coma, even as he denied
that he only made an attempt when the girl’s brother came and forced the
door open,” he said.
He said the accused was later taken away by some policemen from Iddo
police outpost, who came with their patrol vehicle about 40 minutes
later.
A police officer with the Iddo police outpost who preferred anonymity
confirmed the incident, saying the suspect had been detained and
investigation was still on after which he would be charged to court.
