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 between July 8 and
12, 2011.
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.
