Court Orders IG, Police Corporal to pay N10m for Raping Two-year-old


A Nasarawa State High Court ordered the Inspector General of Police Mohammed Abubakar and Mr. Anthony Onoja, a police corporal and convicted rapist, to pay a two-year-old rape victim Chinwendu Obi Onwudiwe, the sum of N10 million for exemplary damages.




For the 70 minutes that the judgment lasted at the Nassarawa State High Court 5, Mararaba, the trial judge, Justice A. Asmau, said she was convinced beyond reasonable doubt that the respondents in the case (the IG and Corporal Onoja) infringed on baby Chinwendu's fundamental rights.
