The Akwa Ibom State Police Command said it had arrested three suspects for different cases of defiling minors, including a 55-year-old man who allegedly raped his stepdaughter.
The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, CSP Nnudam Fredrick, disclosed this in a statement in Uyo on Tuesday.
Frederick said the 55 year-old man forcefully slept with his 15-year-old stepdaughter.
He said that the suspect, an indigene of Odot 1 village in Nsit Atai Local Government Area of the state, was said to have chased Glory out of the house when he discovered that she was pregnant.
The police further said that a 38-year-old cultist, one Ekemini Asuquo, confessed that he lured a 14-year-old girl with N1,500 to a hotel where he forcefully had carnal knowledge of the girl.
Asuquo reportedly later snatched the money from his victim and threatened to kill her if she reported the incident to the Police.
