January 9, 2015 | By | Filed Under News 

An 18-year-old man of Bellevue, West Bank Demerara, who claims he was drugged and viciously raped by at least 10 men, is currently a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC). The teen alleges that he was sodomized by one of his friends on Old Year’s Night in a house at Vreed en Hoop, West Coast Demerara. He told relatives that it was the same friend who organized the gang-rape. The man was first rushed to the West Demerara Regional Hospital two Fridays ago after complaining of severe abdominal pain and anal bleeding. He was subsequently transferred to the GPHC on Wednesday night last. A medical examination performed by doctors at the GPHC confirmed that the teenager was raped repeatedly. The medical report was submitted to the police in ‘D’ Division, who are currently conducting their investigation. This newspaper was told that the teen’s friend is in police custody. According to information received, at around 16:00 hrs on December 31, last, the teen left his home to attend an Old Year’s Night party with the friend. The teen’s mother told this publication yesterday that her son did not return home later that night. “The next day (New Year’s Day) about five o’clock in the afternoon (17:00 hrs) I get a call from my son’s friend. He said that my son would sleep by him the night and come home the next day (Friday, January 2nd) and I said that was okay,” the mother said. She further added that later that night (New Year’s), she received another call from her son’s friend. “He call and tell me that he sending my son in a taxi, but my son reach home till around 11 o’clock (23:00hrs) that night. He came with a car and as soon as the car stop, he run out,” the mother of nine said. “My son was in a terrible condition. He was scared for his life; he was nervous, his body was trembling, and I could see he was in pain. According to the devastated mother, at that point she did not question the teen much, since he was in too much discomfort. She said that he later asked to use the washroom. “I hold him up, but he couldn’t defecate. He was just shaking and he was crying out for belly pain. When he wiped himself, there was a lot of blood on the tissue and I hold him up and put him to lie down on a bed.” The mother said that when she questioned her son, he related the dreadful news to her. “He said that his friend jook him with a needle and he and about nine other men rape him in a house. He said that blood spray up on the sheet, and the boys dem take off the sheet and hide it.” She said that the teenager’s arm was swollen which seemed to indicate that he had indeed been injected. Almost in tears, the woman said that her son told her that the men then locked him in the house and later went back for him. “He said that the boys took him somewhere and they were going to shoot him, but a lady see and shout, and tell him to run. He run and jump in a taxi and the car bring him home,” the mother said. At present, the teen cannot speak or eat. “He keeps calling his friend’s name all the time. The one that he say raped him.” Investigations are ongoing.

Mainly due to inadequate leadership, without proper guidance for the young.

Jagdeo set the tone, that might take generations to reverse.
