[PHOTOS] 8-Year-Old Girl Sexually Assaulted By Pharmacist She Went To For Treatment In Anambra

An 8-year-old girl who went for an injection at a chemist shop was sexually assaulted by a pharmacist in Otuocha, Anambra state.

The pharmacist identified as Onwuegbuka reportedly raised the girl’s skirt, removed her underpants and inserted his finger into her private part – causing her serious pain in the process just as he warned the little girl not to tell anyone.

After the suspect’s arrest, his family and the police reportedly pleaded with the girl’s father for settlement.

“They had a meeting with the girl’s father and agreement was reached to settle the case with N200,000 and they paid 150,000 to balance N50, 000,” an eyewitness said.
