Why We Couldn’t Rescue Lynched Cross River Rapist – Police by LtChisom: 8:02am On Dec 27, 2019 |
In relation to the news about a young man that was lynched to death because he was caught raping and stealing from a girl in Calabar, you can read about it here https://www.nairaland.com/5598355/man-beaten-death-raping-stealing The police have explained why they could not rescue a young man, who allegedly robbed and raped a girl in Calabar, Cross River State, and was beaten to death by a mob on Christmas Day. Explaining what happened, the state Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Irene Ugbo, said the victim “later died because he couldn’t survive the assault on him.” Ugbo stated, “The police rescued him but before we could take him to hospital, he died. We could not make any arrest. In the case of a mob action, it is difficult to investigate. Nobody has come to lay any complaint. “We will try to reduce jungle justice and possibly eradicate it. We will continue to sensitise the people to the danger and the offence of killing another person. It is an offence. It is unfortunate that when such things happen, it is not easy to grab somebody.” It was gathered that the incident happened on Wednesday on the Ekong Etta Street by Okoro Agbor. An eyewitness said the girl’s scream attracted people, who came to her rescue. “The mob chased after the man and caught up with him, while his two accomplices escaped. The mob beat him to death,” the eyewitness said. https://punchng.com/why-we-couldnt-rescue-lynched-criver-rapist-police/
