The Gender Section of the Police Command is investigating a case of gang-rape reported against one Razaq Oluwaseun Oke, 28, and Don-Chima George, 25, at the popular Dallankester Hotels, Lekki, Phase One, Lagos.
P.M.EXPRESS gathered that the suspects allegedly lured the victim to the hotel, drugged, raped her in turns and recorded the action.
The hotel is owned by the father of one of the suspects, Mr. Don-Chima Gorge.
This was disclosed by the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, CSP Chike Oti, on behalf of the Lagos State Commissioner of the Police, Mr. Imohimi Edgal.
Oti said that the duo allegedly took the victim to a club on Saturday, February 2, 2019, unknown to her that they had ulterior motive. While at the club, they mixed the young woman’s drink with a substance that made her weak and almost unconscious.
Satisfied that the drug had affected the victim, they quietly left the club with her to Dallankester Hotels in Lekki Phase One, owned by the father of one of the suspects named Don-Chima George. At the hotel, they took turns to rape her. As if that was not enough, they recorded the abuse.
When the victim woke up from the induced sleep, she confronted the suspects who denied having carnal knowledge of her. Not satisfied, she placed a call to her elder brother complaining that she had been violated. The brother immediately invited policemen from Maroko Division led by the Divisional Police Officer, CSP Isah Abdulmajid, to the scene.
On searching the suspects, the DPO recovered their phones and went through their video recordings where he saw videos of the suspects sexually abusing the apparently unconscious victim.
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Edgal Imohimi, has directed the Gender Section of the Command to investigate and diligently prosecute the suspects to serve as deterrent to others.
