Policeman
The Edo State Police Command has launched an investigation into the shocking action of a Woman Inspector who allegedly demanded a bribe of N1 million from a Sergeant to continue to conceal his crime of bringing out a 17-year-old suspect from a cell to r@pe her.
A Situation Report said the suspect, arrested for receiving stolen property, was raped by the Sergeant who brought her out of the cell.
She was said to have been shocked when the Sergeant, identified as Abraham Uzuobor, with Force Number: 504694, suddenly unlocked the cell and dragged her out.
Uzubor took her to the Administration Office, which was void of any occupant at that hour, and then swooped on her.
Incidentally, while Uzuobor was in the act with the detainee, a Woman Inspector, Edith Eduma, with Force Number: 228719, who was on the day of the incident the Charge Room Officer (the person in charge of counter duty who keeps records and attends to complaints), realised that the cell key was no longer with her.
She quickly rushed to the cell, where she noticed that the female suspect had disappeared from the holding facility.
It was in the process of looking for her, fearing that she had escaped, that she stumbled on Uzuobor r@ping the girl.
Eduma, who discovered Uzuobor s$exually abusing the suspect, rather than reporting to the appropriate authority, allegedly started blackmailing him.
She first collected N45,000 from Uzuobor to conceal the crime.
However, the following day, she demanded an additional N1 million.
Before taking the bold steps to start extorting the perpetrator, Eduma alerted her husband, who is also a policeman, and two other policemen.
It was after discussing with these policemen that she collected the first N45,000.
The SITREP stated: On the 10th of October 2024 at about 9:pm, F/No. 504694 Sergeant Abraham Uzuobor removed a female suspect (names withheld), who is 17 years old from the cell.
“He took her to the admin office, where he had carnal knowledge of her.
“The Charge Room Officer, who noticed the cell key was not with her, rushed to the cell and discovered the suspect detained for receiving stolen property was not in the cell.
“She subsequently went to the admin office where she caught the sergeant in the act and recorded the incident.
“The Charge Room Officer (CRO) AP/No. 228719 W/Inspector Edith Eduma refused to inform the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) or the Incident Duty Officer.
“Rather she called her husband, and two others who are policemen and then collected the sum of N45,000 from the sergeant to conceal the crime.
“On the 11th of October 2024, at about 4am, she called the sergeant again to either pay her an additional one million naira or she would post the video on social media.
“Both officers are currently detained and have been defaulted, now undergoing orderly room trials at area command.”
