| The victim |
A suspected rapist who was allegedly
refused sex by a grade six pupil of Young Tajudeen Middle School, Ede,
Osun State (name withheld) attacked his victim and inflicted injuries on
her.
The assailant, who some claimed was a ritual killer, inflicted machete cuts on the 15-year-old girl’s head, legs and wrist.
Our correspondent gathered that the
pupil was living with....
her grandmother in Ede, Osun State, while her
mother lived in Lagos State.
She was said to have gone inside a bush
in the town to pick some mangoes last Wednesday when the man allegedly
accosted her and wanted to rape her.
The victim said that she was going home with the mangoes when the man appeared and asked her for some mangoes.
She said that she gave the man some and he later demanded sex, which she said she turned down.
She stated further that the man grabbed her head and forced a pill into her mouth and after this, she became unconscious.
Asked if the man raped her, she said that she did not know what happened when she was unconscious.
Some farmers, who were said to have
found the girl inside the bush the following day, rushed her to the
Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching Hospital in Osogbo for
treatment.
The victim was said to have been brought to the hospital with maggots oozing out of the wounds all over her body.
The maggots infested wounds made some
people to believe that the girl was attacked more than 48 hours before
she was brought to the hospital.
