The Lagos State Police Command is
investigating the alleged rape of an unnamed 23-year-old girl on Saturday,
February 2, 2018 by 28-year-old Razaq Oluwaseun Oke, and 25-year-old
Don-Chima George, at De Lankaster Hotels, Lekki, Phase one, Lagos.
According to The Guardian, the
duo allegedly date-raped the girl by taking her to an unidentified club, and
allegedly spiking her drink with a depressant
Spokesman for the Lagos State Police
Command, Chike Oti, has since said, “Satisfied that the drug was
beginning to affect the victim, they quietly left the club with her to
Dallankester Hotels in Lekki Phase one, owned by the father of one of the
suspects named Don-Chima George. At the hotel, they took turns to rape her. As
if that was not enough, they recorded a video of the abused girl.
“When the victim woke up from the
induced sleep, she confronted the suspects who denied having carnal knowledge
of her. Not satisfied, she placed a call to her elder brother complaining that
she had been violated.
“The brother immediately invited
policemen from Maroko Division led by the Divisional Police Officer, CSP Isah
Abdulmajid to the scene. On searching the suspects, the DPO recovered their
phones and went through their video recordings where he saw a video of the
suspects sexually abusing the apparently unconscious victim.”
Reports have since claimed that
Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Edgal Imohimi has directed the
Gender Section of the Lagos State Police Command to prosecute the matter and
make the alleged perpetrators a lesson to others.
