Three young men have been arrested by men of the Ondo State Police Command for allegedly gang-raping a lady in Ondo town, headquarters of Ondo West Local Government Area of the state, after drugging her drink.
The suspects identified as Ojo Olaniyi, Akinseye Bayo, Akintosoye Ayo, gang-raped one Ogungbemi Adewumi, after forcing her to drink the laced alcoholic drink.
Speaking during their parade with other criminals, the State Commissioner of Police, Mr Bolaji Salami, said the family of the victim who found her unconscious and naked reported the incident to the police after it was discovered that she has been gang-raped by the three men.
Salami said the three suspects were arrested and confessed to raping the lady and said “Three sex perverts are now cooling their heels with us at our detention facility.
The trio of Ojo Olaniyi, Akinseye Bayo, Akintosoye Ayo who gang-raped one Ogungbemi Adewumi after making her drunk with alcohol have confessed to their atrocious act.
“The incident which happened at Araromi Street, Ondo town forced the sister of the victim who saw her in her nude form, to report the incident to the Police. They will soon be arraigned in court.”
The Police boss also said the command arrested three men who specialize in dispossessing people of their motorcycles in Akure and its metropolis.
He disclosed that one Tosin Oluwarotimi was dispossessed of his unregistered motorcycle along FUTA road around 7:30 am and was macheted by the suspects in the process.
He said one Oluwajuwon was arrested leading to the arrest of two other members of the syndicate who includes Seyi Adeyemi and Emmanuel Sunday and the recovery of nine motorcycles from them.
He explained that one other victim, John Ede who was attacked and lost his motorcycle to the syndicate after being macheted was rushed to the hospital but died at the hospital.
He said seven persons have also been arrested by Police Command for hijacking a truck conveying 900 bags of cement at Ibese, Ogun state, leaving the driver of the truck with registration number DTF 437 XA unconscious.
He listed the suspect to include, Victor Sunday, Ogbonnaya Gabriel, Felix Aur, Promise Ede, Alaska Isaac Ukpe, Sodiq Momodu and Tosin Igbasan.
The truck was however traced to Okitipupa where the suspects were planning to sell the cement for N4m.
He said one of the truck driver who masterminded the robbery said he was tired of earning N35,000 as a truck driver, but needed more money and had to inform other gang members.
He said all the suspects would be soon be arraigned in court after the completion of the investigation by the command.
The police boss said “It’s all so loathsome, so degenerate that some criminally-minded individuals still perceive Ondo State as a place that they can conveniently trade in criminality without being apprehended.
“I have tried to make criminals know that I am not in Ondo State for the comfort of its Sunshine beauty, but to decimate all awful acts of criminality in and around the state.”
