Wonders they say will never end. The police are at it again and this time, it’s between a police man in Anambra State and a 13-year old girl. Not only did the police man rape her, he also got her pregnant. Initially the police officer denied it and his DPO supported his claims, before the girl’s father who is a pastor petitioned a human rights group and the state Commissioner of Police before the officer accepted he had canal knowledge of her. The funniest part was that he claimed the sex was mutual, but the girl bluntly denied and said he ordered her at gunpoint to have sex with him on her way from school. Really sad. Below is how how Vanguard is reporting it;
A police sergeant has been arrested in Anambra State for allegedly raping a 13- year-old daughter of a popular pastor at Nkpor in Idemili Council Area of the state.The young girl, said to be two months pregnant told her parents last Saturday who was responsible for her pregnancy.
According to a close family source, who does not want to be quoted, the girl told her parents that the policeman had threatened her against telling anyone about the affair.
The source said the threat made her keep the secret until few days ago when she complained to her mother about some symptoms, which after thorough investigation led to her confession of being pregnant.
According to reports, the policeman initially denied the allegation and was supported by the Divisional Police Officer, DPO, which made the victim’s parents to petition a human rights group and the state Commissioner of Police.
After the petition, the policeman was said to have accepted responsibility and agreed to take care of the girl till delivery.
He promised to be giving the girl’s family N20,000 monthly for the girl’s up keep, which the father turned down, demanding N300,000 to enable him take proper care of her daughter till delivery.
In the girl’s statement to her parents, she was quoted as saying that the policeman ordered her at gunpoint to have sex with him on her way from school, a claim the suspect denied, saying the action was carried out mutually between them and not by force.
When contacted, the state PPRO, Emeka Chukwuemeka confirmed that the command received such report but said investigations were ongoing with a view to ascertaining the level of culpability of the said policeman.
The command image‑maker, stated that proper investigation in the matter was necessary, because the state
Commissioner of Police, Usman Gwary, does not tolerate acts of indiscipline by his officers and men.
According to him, “the matter is under investigation and I will brief the press on it later''
