2 rob family, rape pregnant woman
The Rivers State Police Command said its operatives arrested seven suspected criminals, including a car-snatching syndicate and robbers, in various parts of Port Harcourt and its environs.
It said two of the suspects raped a pregnant woman during one of their operations.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Grace Iringe-Koko, disclosed this in a statement on Monday.
Iringe-Koko said notable among the cases was the arrest of two suspects, Saviour Gbarale, 24, and Onyedikachi Uhala, 18, on Etche Street in Borikiri, Port Harcourt, by operatives of the C4i Intelligence Unit of the command.
The statement read, “The suspects specialise in house breaking and have been linked to series of recent armed robberies in the Port Harcourt metropolis and its environs.
“Investigations also revealed that the suspects raped and sexually abused a pregnant woman in the cause of their nefarious operations.
