A 32-year old man, Obinna Arthur and his wife, Chinyere
Arthur have been arrested and brought before an Ejigbo Magistrate in Lagos for
allegedly raping the wife’s friend, videotaping the act, and sharing it on
social media. .
The couple, who reside at Ogundipe Street in Santos Layout in Akowonjo, Lagos,
were said to have lured the victim to Greenland hotel in Egbeda where they
drugged her before taking her to one of the rooms in the hotel.
In the room, the victim, a mother-of-4, was stripped, raped and the sexual
violation was recorded with a video phone. The victim told the court: “after I
was persuaded to come to the hotel, they offered me juice to drink, which I
later found to have been mixed with a substance that made one feel dizzy.
In my state of dizziness, they took me to a room within the hotel premises
where the husband forcefully had sex with me, while the wife was videoing the
romp with her phone but covered her husband’s face from being seen in the video.
After the dastardly act, they went ahead to upload the act to the Internet and
shared it on the social media and among my neighbours. I reported the matter to
the police who later arrested the couple and charged them to court.” .
Obinna, who hails from Ogidi, Anambra State has admitted in his confessional
statement to the police that he did so as a revenge over the business
transaction between him and the victim’s husband, Kenneth, which later turned
sour.
According to the father-of-2, he collected the sum of N1.2m from the victim’s
husband and when he was unable to pay, he then planned to blackmail Kenneth by
sexually assault his wife so he could forget the money.
The victim said her husband loaned the suspect the money for importation of
clothes and when her husband started demanding the money from him, he then
planned to blackmail the family.
