The Lagos State Police Command has arrested two
suspects who posed as soldiers and abducted a
15-year-old girl in the Oworonshoki area of the
state.
Our correspondent learnt that the suspects –
Damilola Balogun and Joseph Agbo – allegedly
raped the teenager overnight and left her by the
roadside.
PUNCH Metro gathered that the incident occurred
last Friday on Akerele Street around 10pm.
It was learnt that the victim, Funke (pseudonym)
was sent on an errand by her parents when the two
men waylaid her with a motorcycle.
The suspects, who put on a military camouflage,
ordered her to climb their motorcycle and rode
away to a hideout around Murtala bus stop in the
Bariga area.
Our correspondent gathered that 20-year-old
Balogun and Agbo, 26, allegedly raped the teenager
till daybreak.
It was learnt that the matter was reported at the
Oworonshoki Police Division, after which police
operatives trailed and arrested the duo.
A police source said, “The victim came to report
the matter at the station. She was on an errand
along Akerele Street in Oworonshoki when the men,
who wore army camouflage, accosted her.
“Before she could cry for help, they had forcefully
whisked her away on a motorcycle to Muritala bus
stop where she was raped till daybreak. They
threatened to kill her if she shouted. They later
released her in the early hours of the second day.”
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP
Dolapo Badmos, said four Automated Teller
Machine cards and 17 identity cards were recovered
from the suspects.
She said, “The police recovered items which
included military camouflage, two berets, two
mobile phones, four ATM cards from different
banks, and 17 ID cards bearing different names.
After interrogation, it was discovered that the
suspects were impersonators.
“They are also suspected to be hoodlums
terrorising the area. The suspects will be
transferred to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad for
further investigation and prosecution.”
