I was raped till dawn by policeman for not wearing face mask, widow alleges BBNaijia2020 thursdaymorning
A human rights activist, Prince Wiro, has charged the Rivers State Police Command to investigate and prosecute its operatives accused of arresting and raping a widow over alleged breach of COVID-19 protocols.
“Thereafter they carried me from one place to the other, claiming they want to take me to the police station but never took me to any police station. Reacting to the development, Wiro, charged the police command to “open immediate investigation into the alleged rape of this woman by a serving officer.”“There is no justification for the punishment of rape to be meted out to a woman because she flouted Rivers State Government order on use of nose masks. I expect the police to take this matter serious.
During her arrest, the victim had raised alarm in a text message posted on a WhatsApp media platform.“I have been taken to a guest house just because of N100 face mask. I can’t believe this is happening to me. He wants to sleep with me. I am dying. He wouldn’t let me pick any call. He threatened to seize my phone.”
