Man, 49, defiles teenage stepdaughter to ‘prepare her for overseas prostitution’ [Video]
A teenage girl in Benin, the Edo State capital has narrated how her 49-year-old step-father allegedly defiled her and repeatedly had sex with her in order to prepare her for prostitution and pornography job overseas.
The teenager, who revealed her horrible experience to a human rights advocacy group, Behind Bars Initiative (BBI), said the man identified simply as Mr Raphael, carried out the act in connivance with her mother.
According to a post shared on Facebook by the Director-General of BBI, Gwamnishu Harrison, the suspect has been arrested and would soon be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) of the Edo State Police Command in Benin.
Harrison also shared a video of an interview with the victim on his Facebook page.
He wrote:
“The victim gets physically molested by them whenever she refuses to have sex with the man. They both agreed for the man to continually have sex with her in the bid to widen her vagina in preparation to send her abroad for prostitution (human trafficking) and child pornography.
“Our team led by Gwamnishu Harrison, DG, BBI swung into action as soon as the report got to us and the perpetrator, the 49-year old Mr. Raphael who deflowered the victim, his step-daughter at the age of 14 was apprehended.
“Mr Raphael is currently detained and will be transferred to SCID Benin for further investigation and prosecution.
“We will ensure that perpetrators do not go unpunished for these heinous crimes against the young girl.
“We are taking care of the victim’s medical bills as she is currently receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital.”
