A 20-year-old girl was reportedly raped in a car by her employer in Makurdi, Benue

According to a source: “This little girl was forcefully raped in a car by her employer, the brother approached him (rapist) after the girl was taken to the lab and test carried out was confirmed by the lab scientist of a penetration.

“The rapist went to the same lab for HIV testing when the brother called his attention to the incident and he agreed to it saying, he was sorry and the test was duly carried out on him too.

“He knew the family is vulnerable (not having) so he took advantage of bringing in a police CID who is his friend and the man confirmed at first that the rapist did it, but later turned to help frustrate the case (the girl’s brother narrated all these to me).

“The rapist gave the girl’s mother N10k for settlement but she refused initially, she was only pressured to receive the money by an elder who knew about it. The mother was indeed wise and kept the money as evidence/exhibit.

“Now the rapist is denying ever meeting the girl in any instance even and they on the other hand never reported to the police aside having the test results, since they have nobody to reveal this to or follow up, until yesterday the brother inboxed me. I will call the police man today, the manager of the hotel as well, the rapist, the girl and her mother and speak to them. The mother I am told wants justice for her daughter and nothing more. ” he added.
