TWO TEENAGE BOYS RAPE THEIR 6-YEAR-OLD SISTER TO DEATH IN DELTA

A 19-year-old boy, Felix Inia and his 16- year-old
brother, Stanley are now cooling their heels at the
headquarters of the Delta State Police Command,
Asaba, for
allegedly defiling their six-year-old stepsister,
Precious Kankamor. The incident, which eventually led to the death of the
victim, occurred at Ogbe-Ijoh community, Warri
South Local Government
Area of the state. The suspects were said to have
had carnal knowledge of the minor by
forcefully penetrating her, which led to severe injuries in the victim's private part. Besides the injuries sustained after the alleged
sexual abuse, little Miss Precious later
developed protruding stomach, leading to medical
complications that eventually cut
short the life of the victim. Investigation revealed that the suspects' mother got
married to the father of the deceased after
her first marriage ended with the death of
Mr. Inia. The now embattled mother moved
into her new marriage with her teenage
sons, who unsuspecting, had eyes on little Miss Precious immediately they stepped into
their new home. They allegedly carried out their ignoble
mission last month when they were left with
the victim at home while others had gone
out for the day's activities. According to a
police source, the younger Inia, Stanley,
allegedly lured his elder brother, Felix, into the act. "The younger brother said he sold
the idea to his elder brother. He (Stanley)
assured his brother that there was nothing
to be afraid of and that he (Stanley) had
been doing it with other children in the
area," the source told Daily Sun. Public Relations Officer of the command, ASP
Famous Ajieh, confirmed the arrest of the
suspects, adding that they would be
charged to court as soon as investigation
was concluded.
Ajieh said the command was also investigating four suspects who were
arrested during a raid on suspected criminal
hideouts in Kwale in which one Improvised
Explosive Device (IED) and nine live
cartridges were recovered. Besides, Ajieh
stated that the command's special patrol team code-named Dragon 11 also attached
to Kwale axis, while on routine patrol,
intercepted two men on motorcycle who
had in their possession one brownie pistol
with tempered breech number. According to
him, one of the suspects, Chukwudi Nwafor has admitted ownership of the firearm,
which he claimed he bought in Jos, adding,
however, that the matter was still under
investigation.
