One of the two sisters who were gang-raped in a robbery attack at Batsonaa in Accra briefly revisited the trauma she went through Tuesday, when she met one of the robbers in a 'trotro' vehicle.
According to her, she immediately recognised the man as she boarded the vehicle from Batsonaa to Kwame Nkrumah Circle, but could do nothing about it, because she was so afraid that the robber would recognise her.
All she could do was to turn her face away and later reported this to her father, who also sustained serious wounds in the attack and is on admission at the 37 Military Hospital.
This turn of events has compelled the girl's father to express his dissatisfaction with the progress of police investigations into the crime.
Speaking to the Daily Graphic on his hospital bed at the hospital, the man (name withheld), said armed with this information, he got in touch with the investigator who was in charge of the case, but he complained that he had several cases at hand and, therefore, would be unable to pursue the armed robber.
He also complained that he was yet to write his statement, because the investigator had not brought a statement form to the hospital.
According to him, he had called the investigator on his cell phone several times without response, although the line had been going through.
The Daily Graphic carried a front page story on its Saturday, May 31, 2008 issue, in which six armed robbers, dressed in female apparel gang-raped two sisters in a house at Batsonaa in the full glare of their father after robbing the household of valuable items, including laptops, mobile phones and cash.
