“The victims who are teenagers aged between 13 and 14 years old, confessed that some youths had canal knowledge of them using drugs and charms during which none of them could recall what happened.
“The command also conducted a medical examination on the girls which revealed that there was a serious penetration while the others were confirmed to be pregnant.
” The three girls recalled that they were abducted in a tricycle before they were taken to separate location where they were raped.
“We, therefore, call on parents to ensure proper upbringing of their children and wards, and monitor their movements.
