Beauty queens reign for some time and then, they disappear into the thin air. But some daring ones hardly leave the scene as they enlarge their territories, break records and make something fantastic out of themselves.

The Abia State Police command has explained why it suspended investigations into the gang violation that happened in its Abia State University. The state police command said the girl-victim consented to the violation. An online website monitoring the case yesterday reported that commenting on a DVD tape sent to his CP to expedite investigations into the activities of the criminal gang, J.G. Micloth, the Assistant Commissioner of Police in charge of Abia State Police command Criminal Investigation Department said the lady had consented to the gang crime.
He was quoted as saying that after watching the DVD, he said he did not see the young lady resist the violation.
I got a disturbing gist concerning progress of investigation and “prosecution” of the ABSU violation case. it is a shame if a high rank police officer can make that unfortunate statement. Like a friend of mine Ena said on facebook “ I understand the negative connotation of “rat race” but I hope those on the queue are trying to rescue their comrade? I hope it is not what it looks like !!!

Why are you guys so quick to believe the story? no wonder the average Nigerian believed in the killer phone number without proof.  Is that picture a conclusive proof that she is pregnant? how big is that tummy? do you have the result of her pregnancy test or did you see her exhibit the symptoms of pregnancy publicly?  I pity Nigeria !!  Amebo people   Tafia republic

According to Robert MC Namara, a former United States Secretary of Defence " Any Society that seek to achieve adequate military security against the backdrop of acute food shortages, population explosion ,low level of productivity and per capital income,low technological development,inadequate and insufficient public utilities and chronic problem of unemployment has a false sense of security"
Nigeria has not been able to surmount any of these challenges , there are too many "little" things wrong with Nigeria cumulating and snowballing into a very big problem. Nigerians are already used to most of the so called smaller problems , it is now taken as normal not to always expect constant electricity supply, it is now seen as normal for the police to extort money from motorists at gun point , brutalize and kill citizens extra judicially , corruption is seen as a norm and most people are only waiting for their turn to get there and loot the national treasure , are we all mentally corrupt? we are satisfied with mediocrity , we have simply lost it !!



Opinion
Yes Nigerians can be said to be mentally corrupt at the moment, For example Governor Fashola is only a good governor by Nigerian standard but most Nigerians will never see beyond their nose in that perspective, not in a country where we praise (NEPA) PHCN when they give us "uninterrupted" power supply for 6 hours you here words like " oh!! at least they have tried today o "!! Perspective   we need some kind of revolution, regional maybe!!

  It is a confirmed gist.  confirmed rumor or whatever  see
http:///2011/09/dbanj-and-don-jazzy-nabbed-for-drug.html

virtue of my profession as a legal practitioner , i will try and explain what we have on ground.

In the case before us and what we can deduce from the video clip, it appears top the objective mind that the Lady in the video has not consented to the act and she was been forced to continue. there was also complete penetration which is a vital ingredient to prove that rap.e has occurred.
The problem is that it is not easy for the judge/court to just step into the arena and decide that having seen the video like Seun has stated , the suspects are hereby found guilty of the "Offence" the court does not work that way. the court acts and is limited to how well the prosecution conducts its case. Rape is a criminal offence and the burden of proof is on the prosecution to prove the offence and this must be proof beyond reasonable doubt.
The prosecution must conduct its case diligently for the expectation of the general public (especially the honorable laymen of the public) to be actualized.
The Victim must be identified and must also be willing to come out to the open to identify the suspects as those she had an encounter with on the fateful day,the identification of the scene of crime (location where the act took place) should also be identified.,she must be willing to aid the prosecution in their investigation. she must also be willing to testify against the suspects(accused) in the open court ,


The Prosecution's next hurdle once investigation is complete is to come to charge the accused to the open court , open its case, call its witnesses (Prosecution Witness(es) to testify in the open court , present the controversial video clip to the open court so as to establish its case that the act of rape actually took place and that there was penetration/ unlawful carnal knowledge and gross segxwal assault. the prosecution will then seek to tender this as an exhibit in the open court. The prosecution then closes its case and the defense will open his own case in order to cast doubt on the prosecutions case. there are several options for the defense to adopt including a no case submission if it feels the prosecution's case is so bad that it will "self destruct"
What i am trying to say in essence is that securing a conviction depends on the strength of the prosecutions case and more importantly the diligence with which it is being carried out. and to some extent on how strong a defense lawyer can conduct the defence of the accused persons. Therefore if we must get justice we need competent lawyers sponsored by various interest groups to hold watching brief for the would be complainant in the course of trial.
    

KANO – Two miscreants, Abba Garba 18, Abubakar Suleiman, 17, Monday, shocked Kano residents as they  confessed to have gang-raped a National Youths Service Corps, NYSC, member serving with Durumi Secondary School, Kurna in Kano municipality.

The police  said it has arrested Abba Garba and Abubakar Suleiman while the other two, Nazeephy Malam and Ali Wara  are said to be at large.

Garba, the lead suspect told Vanguard that the incident occurred penultimate week  in one of the classrooms in the college by 12 noon when the victim, who was not aware of the strike action in the state, resumed for classes.

He revealed that he and his cohorts were forced into the school building on the fateful day by  the torrential downpour  when suddenly a lady that appeared to be in her late 20’s approached them, speaking a language they could not understand.
Garba said that in he was moved by the beauty of the ‘stranger’ and  immediately drew out a sharp knife and compelled her to undress before  he and his friends raped her in turns.

He said: “I took shelter in the premises of the college with my friends when it started raining on that fateful day. While we were having fun, a lady suddenly approached us and was speaking a language none of us understood.

“I was moved by her beauty  and immediately drew out a sharp knife. We took her into one of the class rooms, forced her to undress and raped her in turn before policemen on patrol apprehended two of us. The other two escaped.”

   Without  the Victim, it will be impossible to punish the suspects. the identification of the victim is vital to this case, and if she can not be found then CASE CLOSED!!

The Minister of youth Development Mallam mobolaji Abdulahi earlier said today that in-spite of the identification of the suspect of the ABSU Gang violation it may be difficult to bring them to book on the charge of violation. He was quoted to have said
" Some legal expert have told us that it may be difficult to convict the rapists because the video does not reveal the faces of the victims (suspects i believe he meant to say)

Now lets make an attempt to solve this puzzle logically and as a legal practitioner . i have worked at the National Human rights commission and i know how the system works. In the video, the girl’s face is clearly seen but the faces of the five boys remain blurred. One could clearly hear them speak Igbo and English language revering to each other by names; for instance, one of the rapists said, “Wisdom don dey talk now.” Other names the rapists called themselves during the commission of the act in the video include: Chisom, Zaki, Uchenna. Zaki even bragged to the victim, “Do you know who Zaki is?” The fifth name is a little muffled but sounded very much like Ifeanyi. One of them identified himself as a 400 level law student, while another claims to be on IT Industrial attachment.
The first thing to do is to ensure that the identifies suspects(s) are questioned and interrogated (of course they are at liberty to deny their involvement especially with the aid of a very good lawyer. The identification of Lady /Victim (in person) in the video is very important to prove its case against the suspects , she will be in a perfect position to identify the suspects and the location of the crime which will also be very helpful to the prosecution.
An important step the government can take now is to openly appeal to the victim to come forward and help bring the suspects to book. it is quite unfortunate that most violation victims would rather keep quiet and suffer the trauma in silence as they are afraid for stigmatization from the public if they ever come forward with their testimonies.
violation is the most serious kind of intimate assault and is punishable with imprisonment for life with or without whipping according to the Nigerian Criminal code.
The Offence is defined in section 357 of the Criminal Code as follows
" Any person who has unlawful carnal knowledge of a woman or girl ,without her consent,or with her consent,if the consent is obtained by force or by means of threat or intimidation of any kind,or fear of harm,or by means of false and fraudulent representation as to the nature of the act,or, in the case of a married woman,by personating her husband,is guilty of an offence which is called violation.
" Every person who does or omits to do any act for the purpose of enabling or aiding another person to commit the offence and every person who aids another person in committing the offence are all criminally responsible under section 7 of the Criminal code.
this includes the person making the video of the violation and possibly the owner/occupant of the apartment/room in which the offence was committed are also criminally responsible for violation , conspiracy to commit violation and facilitating the commission of the offence.
It is clear from the video that the act of violation actually occurred, the suspects has been identified and we need to identify the victim in person and possible counsel and convince her to identify and testify against those who violated her.

beast molesting a lesser beast. shame!!!

It is now a notorious fact that the Former governor of Lagos state has been dragged before the code of conduct tribunal ,CCT sitting in Abuja on three count charge that he operated 10 foreign accounts while in office between 1999 and 2007.
A mild drama ensued at the tribunal yesterday while the trial was on , while the prosecution counsel and defence counsel were busy having their verbal warfare on some preliminary issues Tinubu remained comfortably seated at the gallery, a situation that prompted the prosecution Lawyer to insist that he should mount the dock
“Before we proceed Sir, I wish to make an observation. This is a criminal matter, and by the rules of this court once an accused is before the tribunal, a chair is placed for him at the dock to sit and listen to the proceedings.”
