The Police in Oyo State are detaining three boys Joshua Adegoke, 18, Peter Akintunde, 18, Oluwajoba Adetona for raping a 17 years old girl and recording the escapade on their mobile phones.
According to Oyo State Police PRO Adewale Osifeso the girl (name withheld) had visited her friend Adegoke at his residence and Akintunde who also present made advances to the girl, but she refused.
“On the October 24, 2022 at about 12pm, the victim, (name withheld) ‘f’ 17yrs visited her friend Joshua Adegoke ‘m’ age 18 years at his residence where she met one Peter Akintunde ‘m’, age 18 years,” Osifeso said in the police statement.
“At Joshua’s place, she was given a bottle of soft drink after which she was invited to his room for sex an offer which she declined. In a bid to salvage what she sensed was becoming a trouble, she innocently asked Peter, Joshua’s friend to prevail on his friend but instead Peter advised her to offer Joshua what he demanded.
“At this point, both friends took turns to forcefully and unlawfully have carnal knowledge of their victim while simultaneously recording the act. After this, Joshua deliberately transferred the video footage to another friend, one Oluwanjoba Adetona, who also reached out to the victim demanding for sex in exchange for not uploading the footage on social media.
“The suspects have voluntarily confessed to the crime and are helping with the investigation.”
