Operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) in Ekiti State, have arrested a young man identified as Peter David, for raping a pregnant goat at an uncompleted building in Owode Quarters, Ado Ekiti.
The Benue indigene was caught in the act on Wednesday by officials of the Benin Electricity Distribution Company (BEDC), who were drawn to the scene by the bleating of the goat.
It was gathered that David had attempted to escape when accosted by BEDC officials but was nabbed by one Pastor Gbenga Ajulo.
The clergyman disclosed that he was praying in church when he heard someone scream for help.
“I came out and saw the man trying to escape and I caught him. When we sat him down, we asked him what happened and he confessed that he was having sex with the goat. For about two hours, the goat was foaming in the mouth and bleeding in the private parts.
“This is a bad omen. It is evil. I suspect the act is for ritual. There is the need for cleansing. Beyond, all these strange diseases in society are from acts like this. He would have contacted diseases from having carnal knowledge of the goat”, Pastor Ajulo said.
According to the spokesman of the Ekiti State Police Command, Mr Sunday Abutu, the young man confessed to have perpetrated a similar crime in Ondo State.
Abutu said, “Men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad Department arrested a man that was sleeping with goat in the neighbourhood.
“He was interrogated and he confessed that he engaged in the act. He further said he had been doing such before he came from Ondo State. We are still interrogating him for more information as to why he is doing such. He will possibly be charged.”
