A suspected rapist identified as Mr. Anointing has been arrested for allegedly defiling an 11-year-old girl, whose parents live in the same compound with him close to Federal High Court, Abakaliki, in Ebonyi state.
The suspect, who hails from Ezza North local government area of the state, was arrested on Wednesday night by the security team, after a distress call.
It was gathered that the suspect usually sends the primary 5 pupils identified as Onyinye on errands and would demand that she brings whatever she bought for him into his room where he defiled her.
The victim, who narrated her ordeal before the Special Assistant to Ebonyi state governor on security and utility (Capital City), Saint Nchekube Angkor, said the suspect, who is a painter, had sexually abused her on several occasions until that fateful incident.
“He will always send me to buy something for him, and when I come back, he will tell me to bring it to his room. Each time l entered his room, he will be touching my breast and be inserting his fingers into my vagina. I don’t like what he does to me, and I don’t know how to tell my parents”, she stated.
Mr. Anakor said he got a tip-off of the incident from one Tochuckwu Nwankwegu, and some others at about 3:30 am on Wednesday, July 5, 2020. He said on getting to the compound, he discovered that the man was caught by neighbors with the girl and they raised alarm.
He said that the suspect, who refused to say anything at the scene of the incident, was taken to Kprirkpiri Police Station, Abakaliki, where he was detained by the police.
Angkor advised parents to look after their children especially the female children, adding: ”This is why I have been shouting to your parents. Look after your children, more especially female children. Know what your child is doing, at school, and in the house. Monitor her movement; it is highly necessary”
