Two teenage boys have been arrested for allegedly gang-raping a 15 year old girl by the Ebonyi state Police Command.
According to the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in the state, Loveth Odah, the suspects confessed to the crime.
Odah said the incident happened at Nkelegu Ishieke community in Ebonyi Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.
She said the police division at Ishieke arrested the suspects who allegedly defiled the victim in her father’s house as he was away for his daily business.
The police spokesperson disclosed that the suspects, though minors, would be remanded at the juvenile welfare home, if found guilty by the court.
“The only thing that can make children of this age to indulge in such an act is cultism and drugs.
“Fidelis Nwoye in the company of his daughter came to the station and reported that both suspects went to his house while he was at his shop, tore his daughter’s clothes and raped her.
