The Commissioner of Police, Olatunji Disu, ordered the officer’s detention at the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department of the State Police Command.

The Incident

The teenager’s aunt, known as Love, narrated the incident to reporters in Port Harcourt, the state capital.

The next morning, the girl revealed that the police officer had held her in his office at the Bori Area Command and allegedly raped her until daybreak.

The victim’s guardian stated, “She told me that one police officer with two stars at the Area Command held her in his office at the Area Command, Bori, and raped her till daybreak. That he threatened to shoot her if she shouted. So because of that, she kept quiet. So when she came back, I checked her as a mother and saw that somebody had touched her.”
