Four men, who allegedly raped an 11-year-old hawker in Ibadan, have been arrested.

It was gathered that the secondary school pupil, who lives at NNPC area of Ibadan, was said to be hawking detergent when the suspects allegedly forced her into an uncompleted building, where they allegedly raped her in turns.

The little girl, it was learned, was lured by the men, who pretended that they wanted to buy the detergent she was hawking and then urged her to go to the uncompleted building with them to collect her money.

It was reported that the girl turned down their request, but was forcefully taken into the uncompleted building, where two other men were waiting.

A source quoted the girl as saying that after she was taken to the house, one of the two boys, who were waiting there, gagged her, while the other forcefully opened her legs.

The source said: “She said the two men, who took her to the building raped her, before the two others took their turn.”

When the girl threatened to report to the police, they threatened to beat her up and later offered her money. But her mother reported to the police.

Confirming the incident, the Oyo State Police Command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Adekunle Ajisebutu, said: “The case was reported by the victim’s mother and the state Commissioner of Police, Samuel Adegbuyi, has directed that the case be transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department of the command.”
