The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Oyo State Command, has nabbed three suspects over allegedly gang-raping a 16-year-old girl.

Parading the suspects in Ibadan on Friday, the state’s Commandant, Augustine Padonu, said the victim was impregnated and forced to carry out an abortion.

He said the suspects, aged 18, 19 and 43, conspired to commit the crime on different occasions in the Oranyan area of Ibadan in June.

The commandant said the oldest of the trio, a commercial driver, took the victim to an unlicensed 23-year-old nurse to carry out the abortion, adding that she had also been arrested. (NAN)
