Delta State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr.Isaiah Bozimo has frowned at the rate parents of rape victims flood his office with applications for withdrawal of such cases.
He lamented that it is very worrisome to note that cases of rape in the state are on the increase.
Bozimo said that it will be an uphill task to nip the rising cases of rape in the bud if parents of victims who are supposed to be on the same page with the prosecuting authority continue to display nonchalant attitude towards such a grievous crime.
Bozimo who however resolved that the Ministry will continue to pursue such cases to it’s logical conclusion so long there are strong evidence to do so.
He advised victims or their parents to come forward to the ministry whenever such happens.
The Attorney General reiterated that the ministry is determined to discharge one of its mandates of prosecuting those who run foul of the law on behalf of government.
