Nursing School Students Gang-Raped 6-Year Old In Benin

                        

Three final year Nursing Students of Edo State School of Nursing, have, according to reports, gang-raped a six-year old girl in Benin. Already, the police have arrested two of the students while the third suspect in crime is said to have ran away.

The suspects had (claimed to be) committed the crime after attracting the little girl from a temporary/quickly made store within the school hostel, while her mother was away.

Mother of the victim was said to have discovered the pollution/ruining of her daughter following

complaints of stomach pain, just as she was said to have also stooled and urinated (very much). 

Following the discovery, the victim's mother quickly reported the event at the Aideyan police division, which led to the arrest of the two students, while the third suspect (claimed to be) ran away.

Besides, the event was also reported to the Principal of the school and the Edo State Commissioner for Health.

PMNews reports that a source close to the family of the victim told professional writers in Benin that the the girl is now receiving treatment at a secret medical facility.

"The little girl said that when they (suspects) took her there (hostel), they tied her hands and mouth. But she was able to identify the three of them," the source said.

Principal of the school, Mabel Omobude, who confirmed the case while speaking to professional writers on phone, said the case has been reported to (clearly connected or related) people in charge for further (act of asking questions and trying to find the truth about something).

"Yes, we are aware. The case was reported to the Director of Nursing Services. The Commissioner of Health is aware. She wrote a letter to the Commissioner of Health which was sent to my director to (ask lots of questions about something to try to find the truth). That was just Thursday and we have started our own (act of asking questions and trying to find the truth about something)," she said on telephone.

Also commenting on the event, the Coordinator of Child Protection Network, Ms. Jennifer Ero, while calling for stiff penalties for the suspects, noted that the mother of the girl had been subjected to threatening/making scared for reporting the case.

"Because she owns a shop there (in the school hostel), they are threatening to eject her because she went to the public with what happened. They want her to keep silent over it," Ero said.
