OFFICIAL RESPONSE TO INQUIRIES ON THE RAPE OF MISS D (name withheld)

This morning, I woke up to an alert from Mrs Chinyere Itesi to respond to an abhorrence that was on display here on DPA page. As I scrolled down, I saw that the story being depicted happened in my vicinity. It is the painful rape of Miss D, a 12 year old primary six (6) pupil who hails from Umuoso Nkwuegwu in Umuahia, Abia state.

I made and maintained correspondence with Mr. Henry Gantt Chibueze Odimuko who hails from the same locality and met up with him in the Police Hospital along Bende Road, Umuahia where he honorably kept vigil. There a met a beautiful girl bedridden, a teary eyed mother and a little confused brother who has no clue why his big sister writhes in pain.

Here are the Gory details
Miss D was raped by Ifeanyi Mbakwe and his Cousin Ikechukwu Mbakwe. Not only is this vulgarity despicable, they committed an abomination in their custom as Miss D is their sister who they cannot have neither carnal knowledge of nor marry.

No arrests have been made by the officers in Afugiri Police Station where the case was reported to despite information by the young men in the community that though the boys have gone into hiding, they are very much around.

The mother has received threatening calls by the father of one of the hoodlums that her options are to withdraw the case from the police so as to receive whatever cursed paltry sum of money for Miss D's treatment or watch him swallow her in a lawsuit of which he has lawyers at his disposal.

I saw first hand, the brutality of these boys as they had to break her leg to totally incapacitate her thus allowing them ample time without resistance to carry out this dastardly act.

What is most unfortunate is that no test has been carried out on this Innocent young girl to ascertain her status on infection if any (hopefully none) and also produce DNA evidence that can be used to prosecute her attackers.

Progress:
Through the effort of Mr. Henry and myself, the doctor now has been made to know that DPA and the world are now watching. Our little financial aid has made it possible for her mum to meet up with at least an x-ray for her legs to see the level of damage.

It is only in DPA that Justice without bias is followed doggedly with resilience and we will not relent.

Justice for Miss D who has been unfortunately scarred by her so called two " brothers" who are actually beasts.
