DSP George Okafor, the Command’s Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who confirmed the arrest, said that the suspect lured the victim to an abandoned jeep in the area and defiled her.

According to him, the matter was reported to the police by the community’s Youth President, Uchechi Elechi.

“The victim was rushed to the Ezzambgo General hospital, Ohaukwu LGA by sympathisers, as her parents for whatever reasons failed to report the matter to us.
