A first-year student of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has been gang-raped by six young men, including her boyfriend. The victim allegedly declined the continuous demands by her boyfriend, Partick Fosu to engage in a threesome.
The victim’s boyfriend allegedly lured her to a dark room, forcibly had unprotected sex with her, and invited his friend, Kingsley Asiedu Andoh who was already in the room to join. The other suspects also joined and committed the act, according to the police.
The six accused persons have been charged with rape after they admitted to the crime in their caution statement. The accused persons appeared before the Asokore Mampong District Court and were remanded into police custody. Counsel for the accused persons, Richard Adu Darko said he would resort to the appropriate court to secure bail.
The victim, who is currently writing her exams, is undergoing counselling and physiological care. Police are awaiting medical examination results from a hospital as part of their investigation.
