graveyard over prostitution
The police in Gwarinpa have arrested 15 women
suspected to be commercial sex workers near a graveyard opposite War College
Estate, Gwarinpa.
The police also arrested five men who had
intent to patronise the commercial sex workers.
City News gathered that some of the men were
arrested with the girls in a shanty near the graveyard.
Police sources said the residents of the
estate had reported at the police station that the commercial sex workers
usually constitute public nuisance between 8:00p.m. and 10:00p.m.
The Gwarinpa Divisional Police Officer, CSP
Nuruddeen Sabo, said the police raided the area at about 9:00p.m. on Tuesday
and arrested 15 prostitutes and five men with intent to have sexual intercourse
with the women.
“The way they were dressed and paraded
themselves and waiting by the road side raised a lot of suspicion. The men were
there to negotiate and some of them were arrested inside the batcher with
intent to committing sex,” he said.
He said some of the girls used a shanty close
to the graveyard opposite War College to attend to their customers.
“We went and raided the place and we arrested
about 20 people, 15 women and five men. There are batchers close to the
graveyard where they have sexual intercourse.
“We are interrogating them and we will charge
them to court for nuisance,” he added.
