The Police Command in Ogun detained three of the five men who supposedly gang raped a lady (name withdrawn) on Thursday at Ogijo area of Sagamu council area.

The suspects arrested last weekend following a complaint by the victim at Ogijo Police Division, Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the command, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said in a statement.

“The victim had reported that she met a man, simply identified as Enny Money, who gave her an application to download on her phone with an assurance that those she will meet through that application will help her financially.

“She further stated that as soon as she downloaded the application, one man, whom she later identified as the same Enny Money, started chatting with her and invited her to Idimogun area in Ogijo.

“She said that on getting there, she was lured into a house where she was subsequently gang raped by five men who called themselves members of the one million boys.

“The victim explained that the gang forced her to submission when one of them pointed a gun at her, adding that another one video recorded the action with his phone while they were taking turns to rape her,” he said.

Oyeyemi stated that following the report, detectives from the Ogijo division of the command dispatched to the area to capture the suspects.

He clarified that the detectives thrived in arresting two of the suspects around the area on Friday.

“Their arrest led the detectives to the third suspect, who was arrested on Sunday.

“On interrogation, the suspects made confessional statements that they actually committed the crime as alleged by the victim.

“They further confessed that the victim was the second person they gang raped in the area,” he said.

The police retrieved a toy gun the suspects regularly use to coerce their victims to giving in as well as a phone they used to record “their immoral act”.

Edward Ajogun, state Commissioner of Police ordered the transfer of the suspects to the state Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for further investigations.

“He equally directed that the remaining members of the gang be hunted for and brought to justice,” he said.
