threw her to the floor and she became

pulled her pair of jeans trousers and her
underwear and started having sex with her.
While he was allegedly raping her, one of their
neighbours identified as Innocent Chukwu who
opened the boutique shop raised the alarm and
alerted other neighbours who went there to

escape but was prevented by the residents who
apprehended and handed him over to the police

He was charged with attempted murder, rape and
assault under the Criminal Code.
