A 15-year-OLD junior high school student has been defiled by seven of her colleagues at Maamobi in Accra, leaving her crying and bleeding profusely.

The seven who embarked on the vicious adventure tagged "sex gala" have been arrested by the police and are being kept at the Osu Juvenile Remand Home.

A source at the Domestic Violence and Victims Support Unit (DOVVSU) of the Ghana Police Service told the Ghana News Agency that on October 13, the victim visited a public toilet when it was raining.

On her way, she met the main suspect, her senior in the same school, who forcibly collected the umbrella she was carrying from her and took it home.

On her way back home, the victim decided to pass by her senior's house to collect the umbrella. And that was when her ordeal started.

When the victim got to the suspect's house, she was asked to enter the room, but immediately she stepped in the suspect increased the volume of his tape recorder, pushed her onto his bed and forcibly had sex with her.

Although she shouted for help, nobody heard her because of the high volume of the tape recorder. After the main suspect had had his turn, he invited six of his friends who gagged the victim, held her hands and legs tightly and had sex with her one after another.

According to the source, a friend of the main suspect who had been conversing with him before the suspect left, with the excuse of attending to a visitor, decided to check on him after waiting for a while.

When the witness got to the room, he saw the victim's dress in the hall and when he tried to enter the bedroom, the other boys prevented him. He, however, forced his way into the room and saw the victim soaked in blood.

All the suspects fled and the witness led the victim to her house and informed her family of the incident.

They, in turn, reported the matter to the Kotobabi Police who issued a medical form to her to see a doctor.
The suspects were apprehended and sent to the juvenile remand home.
