Woman Arrested For Cooking Up Rape Story
An unemployed woman at Ho-Bankoe, Bridget Tsahey,
who accused three men of gang-raping her and later
turned round to say that she made up the story,
has been arrested by the police.



Assistant Superintendent of Police in-charge of
DOVVSU in the Volta Region, Mr. Isaac I.I. Ahor,
who disclosed this to The Ghanaian Times at ho
Thursday, said that the woman was on police
enquiry bail.



According to him, on March 18, this year at about
midday, Tsahey went to the Ho Central Police
Station with a story that she visited her
boyfriend, Courage Ahiadu at Ho-Anagokodzi that
day and they had sex.



She said after the act, the boyfriend went out of
the room briefly and came back with two other men,
after which the three took turns to forcibly have
sex with her.



Mr. Ahor said that, based on Tsahey's complaint,
the police rushed to Ahiadu's house and arrested
him together with a friend, George Agboadu.



According to Mr. Ahor, the case was immediately
referred to DOVVSU and while investigations were
ongoing, the woman came out with the confession
that she concocted the story against her boyfriend
and the two friends to teach them a lesson,
because the boyfriend had threatened to jilt her.



Tsahey, who has been charged with deceit of public
officer, will be arraigned before the Ho Circuit
today.
