Rape of 11 year old girl in Okigwe, Imo State

Network on Police Reforms in Nigeria, NOPRIN, just received information about the alleged rape of an 11year old girl in Okigwe by an Okigwe-based businessman from Isuikwiuato, Abia State. The Victim's aunt told NOPRIN that the alleged rapist lured the little girl- who was hawking an item, to his apartment on the pretext of going to pay her for the item he bought from her. He raped the girl overnight while her guardians were searching for her.

The following morning, the alleged rapist put the girl on a bike that took her to her village where the guardians eventually found her. She's currently hospitalized at Okigwe General Hospital and in bad condition.
