A big babe in Enugu State who took a public bus to get to her destination is now living in regrets as she was, in the most inhuman form, rapéd by a popular commercial bus driver in the city of Enugu. He has been charged with rapé after she was rescued from him but the case has been adjourned till February 26, 2014.
The rapist, Emeka Ugwudiobi was said to have to violently had intercourse with her at gunpoint for 15 hours.
According to the prosecution counsel, Mr Francis Ajagu, the driver plies the New Market-Gariki route and the victim was one of his passengers on the fateful day.
“On getting to Mayor Market, he observed that it was only the victim that was left inside the bus...
“He drove the bus to an uncompleted building beside the Mayor Market and started molesting the victim,” Ajagu told the court. He said the victim was molested from 7 p.m. to 10 a.m. without break and that the accused never heeded the pleas of the victim to have pity on her or to allow her rest.
Ajagu said it was a passerby, one Mr Chidubem Ezeorah, who ran into the scene and reported the case to the police.
When the police got the scene and rounded up Mr Emeka Ugwudiobi, the lady was in such a bad shape that she could hardly stand on her feet in the uncompleted building.
Funny enough, Chidubem Ezeorah's counsel, one Peter Obeta, described the rapist as a responsible man who has a wife and four children. He claimed that the accused had been into driving for the past 16 years and that nobody had ever complained that he was a rapist.
Peter Obeta said that there was no way a bus driver would carry a gun inside his bus and the police would not notice and denied that his client had ever seen the victim he was accused of molesting.
But Justice Dorathy Agishi, who adjourned the case to February 26, 2014, for trial, ordered the accused to be remanded in prison custody.
#Christmas and #NewYear in prison, first.
