An undergraduate of a Nigerian university is now a guest of the police
after he master-minded the sexual abuse of a young boy by four other
students and left him with fatal anal injuries.
According to
LEADERSHIP, the leader of the group, a second-year student whose name
was given as Friday Desmond, had been the lover of the victim, whose
name was given simply as George.
Desmond had promised to marry George
upon his graduation from the university. Their abhorring relationship
had been going on smoothly, as they both found time to meet in a number
of secret places of their choice.
On that fateful day, however, Desmond took four
of his friends to Bwari area council where George lived with his parents
and lured George to a hotel in the neighbourhood. LEADERSHIP gathered
that five-some took turns to sexually abuse young George, by having anal
sex with him.
When they were done, they let injured George go.
According
to reports, when George got home, he discovered that he was having anal
bleeding and quickly alerted his parents who tried every first aid
measure to stop the bleeding to no avail. They quickly rushed George to a
nearby medical centre where the health officials admitted him into the
hospital’s intensive care unit.
Every attempt to stop the
bleeding failed and when his distraught parents demanded to know what
brought about the bleeding, he narrated his ordeal in the hands of his
five assailants.
The parents immediately reported the matter to a
police station in the area council and the operative swung into action,
arresting Friday. LEADERSHIP learnt that the police in Bwari later
transferred the case to Kubwa where Desmond is said to have remained in
police custody.
When LEADERSHIP contacted the public relations
officer of the FCT Police Command, Altine Daniel, she said she was not
aware of the case. She, however, demanded to know the day the incident
occurred so that she could enquire from the station where the incident
was reported. (Agbo)
