A 33-year-old man , Justine Olise was arrested and paraded by the police in Benin for allegedly raping 5 boys, all minors between 10 and 15.

Olise who was paraded alongside 59 other suspected criminals in  the Edo Police Command Headquarters in Benin City, blamed his act on his girlfriend who left him and broke his heart.

Olise confessed, “I don’t know what came over me. It all started when my girlfriend left me and broke my heart, so I wanted to stay away from all women”.

PM News reports:

He said he lured the victims into his room at  20, Evbodaghe street, Eyean in Benin City before carrying out the act.

“I don’t know what came over me. It all started when my girlfriend left me and broke my heart, so I wanted to stay away from all women,” Olise confessed.

Other suspects paraded were arrested in connection with kidnapping, armed robbery, rape, unlawful possession of firearms, cultism, stealing, attempted murderand forgery. A large cache of arms and ammunition was also recovered from the suspects.

The State Police Commissioner, Foluso Adebanjo, who paraded them, said most of the arms and ammunition were recovered from kidnappers and armed robbers.

He warned that the state would be tough for criminals, especially those who come from other states to operate in Edo, just as he warned local criminals against colluding with outsiders.

Adebanjo who was apparently angered by recent deaths arising from clashes between rival cult groups in the state, warned cultists to desist from killings or they would be dealt with severely and charged with murder.
