There's a new twist to the alleged rape
case of a 19-year-old teenager, Gbemisola, as
she now claims to have framed 24-year-old
Kunle in order to punish him.
Punch Metro gathered on Friday that Gbemisola
and Kunle were in an intimate relationship and
had sexual intercourse by mutual consent.
It was further learnt that Gbemisola had sent
some of her nude pictures to Kunle on Whatsapp
before things went awry between them.
Punch had reported on Friday that Gbemisola, a
caterer, had alleged that Kunle asked her out,
which she turned down because she had a
boyfriend already. She had alleged that the
suspect lured her into his parents' house in
Agiliti Estate, Ketu and raped her.
She claimed that the suspect did a picsmix of
her nude pictures, included her phone number
and shared them with his friends on the
Internet.
The suspect, while reacting, had told Punch that
Gbemisola was his girlfriend, adding that the 19-
year-old sent him the nude pictures, which he
only showed to his friends.
On Friday, it was learnt that, the suspect was
arrested by the Police and the case was
immediately transferred to the State Department
of Criminal Investigation, Yaba.
After both of them were grilled by Police
detectives, it was discovered that Gbemisola lied
in her statement to the Police at the Ketu Police
Division.
Kunle, who was in tears at the SDCI, told Punch
that the only evidence he had of their
relationship was destroyed by Gbemisola on the
morning of his arrest.
He said, ''I am in a big trouble. The only
evidence I have that she sent those pictures to
me was my chat history. But immediately the
Police came to arrest me, she picked my phone
and threw it into a well.
''She is the only one that can save me by just
telling the truth. We were in a relationship and I
didn't rape her.''
Punch correspondent, who later spoke with
Gbemisola, asked why she lied against Kunle.
Gbemisola said she wanted to punish him for
betraying her trust and sharing her nude pictures
with his friends and family members on the
Internet, adding that some of his friends had
been calling to demand ''their own share of sex.''
She said she threw his phone into the well
because Kunle claimed he had evidence of their
relationship.
She said, ''He is my boyfriend and we had dated
for just one week, when he asked for my nude
pictures. When two people are dating and they
are in love, anything can happen between them.
''Initially, I declined and he started begging
me. I asked him to swear on oath that he would
later delete the pictures from his phone and he
didn't. I sent the pictures because of the trust I
had in him.''
Gbemisola said she visited him few days
afterwards and he had sex with her.
''He didn't rape me, but I gave in because he
begged, saying it had been long since he did it.''
She said the following day, Kunle asked for a
recharge card, which she sent to him, adding
that he made more demands and when she
declined, the suspect threatened to make her a
''celebrity'' in the community.
''I discovered he never loved me and merely
wanted to use and dump me. When he asked me
to come to his house again, I refused and asked
him to do his worst. He then asked me to log in
to Whatsapp. Immediately I did, I saw that he
had made my nude pics his Display Picture (DP).
He also sent them to me, as well.'' She added.
She said her first boyfriend, who got hold of her
phone saw the pictures and was angry.
Gbemisola said she also received text messages
and telephone calls from those who saw the
pictures.
''They were saying, 'come and let's sleep with
you too.' I was humiliated. A few days later, I
was on the road when Kunle saw me and
started mocking me. I almost committed
suicide.'' She added.
She said she damaged Kunle's laptop after he
continued with his threat that he had another
explicit video of her.
''I lied against him to punish him for what he
did. I threw away his phone into the well
because he claimed to have evidence. I wanted
to destroy him completely.
''But seeing how far this case has gone, I
want to forgive him. We are from the same
Ondo State and our parents are friends.'' She
added.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Joe Offor,
told Punch that investigation was on. He said,..
''Both parties agreed that the intercourse of
that date was consensual and could not have
amounted to rape. Other aspects of the
allegation are under investigation.''
