Suspected lesbian escapes gang-rape in Kumasi

According to an eyewitness [Name withheld], the alleged lesbian Leticia Boakye, a 21-year-old who resides in Krofrom was visited by a female friend. 

The eyewitness said Leticia and her partner were seen all over town hanging out and enjoying each other's company, hugging and touching each other in public.

Unknown to her, a youth group in the same community had been monitoring Leticia and accusing her of being a lesbian after two Senior High School girls in the same area accused her of trying to 'woo' them.

They also claimed she always got many female visitors and friends, but she has not been seen walking with a man.

The group concluded that the visiting friend was one of her same-sex partners and decided to 'teach them a lesson' and the plot was to capture the two and gang-rape them in order to as they claimed, exorcise the lesbianism spirit.

They did, in fact, succeed in catching the two 'lovebirds' after apparently seeing them fondling and kissing at a local restaurant and threatening to carry out their gang-rape intentions after 'arresting' the alleged couple.

Luck however smiled on the two young women when people in the community led by the security man at the restaurant tried to intervene.

He asked where the aggrieved youth were taking the alleged lesbians, and in the ensuing confrontation, Leticia was hit with an object by one of the gang on her abdomen but she and her friend managed to escape with pain in a passing taxi to an unknown location.

After fleeing along with her alleged partner, she has since gone into hiding for fear for her life, leaving behind her rented room and properties afraid to return as the agile youth always go to her house to chant and threaten that they are waiting for her to come so they can attack her and carry out their intentions.
