Heads may roll at the Abraka Police Division, following the rape of a female suspect, Mrs. Ese Isaiah in police cell, where she was detained. The woman was arrested and detained in the cell along with men, following a fight she had with a neighbour.
Two men were said to have raped Mrs. Isaiah in turn, even as she reportedly cried for help with the policemen on duty turning deaf ears. Following the incident, the woman’s counsel, Ejomasuvwe Efe petitioned the Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of Zone 5, Benin, Alhaji Hamisu Argungu, who promptly redeployed the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) and Divisional Crime Officer (DCO) of the Abraka Police Station, Chris Sorgbara and John Olise, respectively to his office, pending conclusion of investigation into the incident.
