“She tried to run out of the room, but one of my friends held and fell her on the ground. I had sex with her first before my friends took their turns.
“After that, I followed her out to the junction and gave her N500 and her mobile phone.
“It was at the junction that she held my shirt and started shouting, which attracted people who arrested and took me to Doubeli Police Station,” Usman said.
