Woman cries rape, police refute allegation

Oct 02, 2014 News

A senior police officer who was alerted to a recent alleged rape of a Devonshire-Castle woman, early Monday morning, has refuted the woman’s claims. He said that his records have so far revealed, according to statements lodged by the woman, that she made no report of rape.
Officer in charge of “G” Division, Kevin Adonis, said that the woman did lodge a complaint about being robbed and beaten by an unknown man, but she never told his subordinates that she was raped. Adonis added that the results of a medical examination which was performed on the mother of four, failed to suggest the woman was raped.
The woman, according to the police, claimed that she was dragged from her Devonshire-Castle home, beaten and robbed.
The 30-year-old victim’s mother said that early Monday morning she received a phone call from someone in the Village alerting her about news of her daughter’s alleged rape.
The mother added, that after receiving the distressing call that had also been made to her son, she later saw her son exiting the house to be confronted by villagers who had gathered on the road apparently in search of his missing sister.
She said the searchers later found her daughter naked and beaten among some bushes aback of her house.
The frustrated mother related that her son, upon seeing his sister naked and helpless, carried her to her mother’s Walton-Hall home, where she, her husband, and four young children are currently staying.
The mother said that her daughter later told her that she can identify the man who raped her. The woman said that the man entered her daughter’s house through a back door and proceeded to first ransack her house before raping her.
The man removed food stuff even clothes belonging to her son-in-law before returning to the house, and dragged her daughter by her hair into some bushes and raped her.
She said the man who threatened to kill her daughter grazed her daughter’s throat with a knife, which the police have since confiscated.  The mother is insisting that her daughter was manhandled by the unknown rapist. The man reportedly cuffed her about her body and her face in an attempted to subdue her.
Meanwhile, police have also received reports of another attempted break and enter incident on Monday in the same Village.
Disgruntled villagers are calling for consistent police presence in that particular Village, since the occurrence of rape and burglary remains a constant feature.
