How four bad friends gang rape a female student in Ondo State, record the crime and threaten her with charms if she reports them

The Ondo State Police Command have arrested four undergraduate students for alleged gang rape of a female student of the Adeyemi College of Education (ACE) in the state.

The  suspects were identified as Olakunle Adetuyi, Timilehin Akinola, Tobi Olagbaju and Adebisi Adeyemi, all aged between 24 and 26. A fifth  culprit, Eric Nwage, is still at large.

The victim, a 22-year-old History and English student is also an estranged girlfriend to Timilehin Akinola of the social studies department in the same college.

Parading the suspects before newsmen in Wednesday, at the command headquarters in Akure, Hilda Ibifuro-Harrison, the Ondo State Commissioner of Police said the victim was lured to the home of Olagbaju, who is a part-time student of Rufus Giwa Polytechnic Owo.

After the student arrived at Olagbaju’s residence located at No. 17, Funbi Fagun Housing Estate in Ondo town, they took turns raping her.

A very close friend to the victim reported the case to the school private security outfit, who later arrested the culprits and after a discreet investigation handed them over to the police for prosecution.

“One of the suspects, Olakunle, took a video of their heinous crime as they took turns on their victim one after the other, and later abandoned her and threatened that they would use charms on her if she ever revealed the incident to anyone." said Mrs. Ibifuro-Harrison.

"The phone and charms used in perpetrating the crime were recovered and the case was transferred to the Department of Criminal Investigation," the police commissioner said.

She added that the victim, whose name was withheld, is currently recuperating at the hospital in Ile Ife, Osun State.

In his confession, Mr. Akinola admitted that he and his friends raped the victim.

“I have been a close friend to her (the victim) and always advised her to shun her wayward attitude, but she wouldn't listen. One day, she called me after the class lecture and said that we should hang out. I later invited her to my friend’s place where we forcefully took turns over her,” he said.
