The Nigerian Army in Enugu has paraded 21 Enugu State
University of Science and Technology students for allegedly torturing and
forcing some female students to have stuff among themselves.
The students, most of who confessed to being cultists,
told journalists that they took video shots of the lésbian act because they had
been offered money by some influential Nigerians.
The idea, the suspects said, was to take tapes of the
scenes to their partners in Europe.
Shortly before parading the suspects on Saturday, the
General Officer Commanding 82 Division, Maj. Gen. Sarkin Yaki Bello, who spoke
through the Assistant Director, Army Public Relations, Lt. Col. Sagir Musa, said
the cultists, were arrested in their hideouts at Agbani on the outskirts of
Enugu.
Bello said the patrol team of 103 Battalion moved to
the ESUT following persistent gunshots at the institution on July 4 and arrested
one of the masterminds of the crime, Mr Franklin Anikwe, with five rounds of
ammunition.
The GOC said he had directed that a thorough
investigation be carried out in order to fish out the
pepetrators.
He said, “It was the preliminary investigation
conducted by the division’s intelligence group that led to the arrest of the 19
other suspects. Some of the items recoverd from them are four locally made
pistols, 10AA cartridges and video clips where the female students were forced
to have illicit stuff with themselves during the raid.”
Also recovered were 10 mobile telephone handsets,
including the one used for recording the dirty scenes.
