A Form Two school girl at a local school who was boozing with a group of five unidentified men apparently got more than what she had bargained for after the suspects allegedly took turns to gang-rape her.
A police source said the unsuspecting teen girl was at Pumula East shops when she met a stranger in his late 30s who sweet-talked her to join them in boozing.
โThere were five men who were boozing at the shops, and she joined them and they drank with her until 10.30pm. One of the men then told her that she would sleep at his place since it was late at night and she agreed,โ said the source.
When they got home, the source said, they slept in the same bedroom.
โAt first, she refused to sleep in the same bedroom with them, but they insisted that she was safe.
Within a few minutes one of the alleged attackers stripped her naked and had sex with her while the lights were on,โ said the source.
After that the other two had a threesome with her and after that they allegedly forced her to drink BronCleer.
โWhen they were done abusing her, they slept on the same bed, and the following day one of the attackers woke her up at around 4am and ordered her to leave their place,โ added the source.
She then boarded a commuter omnibus and went home.
Upon arrival she narrated the ordeal to her parents who reported the incident to the police.
Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Abednico Ncube confirmed the incident and appealed for information that could lead to the arrest of the five sexual attackers who are on the run.
โAnyone with information may contact any nearest police station or call us on 029-60358,โ he said.
