Woman raped by masked man in her home

17

REAL NEWS: A woman is recovering emotionally and physically after reportedly being raped by a masked man, at her home, in the early morning hours.

The offence reportedly occurred at about 5 a.m. on September 21.

Reports say the victim’s vision was obscured by her attacker, who shined a light into her eyes.

However, the rapist, said to be about 5’5” tall, reportedly was dressed in a grey hooded sweatshirt that helped to conceal his identity.

It is alleged that the intruder entered the home via the front door, which was closed but not locked.

The victim made a report to the Grays Farm Police Station, by phone, and the matter was subsequently turned over to the Special Victims Unit (SVU).

Meanwhile, a healthcare professional tells REAL News there have been quite a number of rapes in the Golden Grove and Gray Hill communities.

He says he cannot understand why the Police are suppressing this information, which women should have in order to protect themselves.

Our Newsroom has reported on several of these assaults, which have also taken place in the Creekside area.

The description of the rapist and his method of operation in these known attacks have been the same, leading one victim to declare that a serial rapist is on the loose.

  1. Guys like these need their penis to be cut off! There’s no full recovery from being raped, it affects you for a lifetime. But I guess most police are men, they’ll never have to deal with being raped, so they don’t understand and they frankly don’t care.

    I’m honestly scared living here in Antigua. One might say that the murder rate isn’t too high, and that would be correct to say, however, the break ins and rapes and other sexual assaults is alarmingly high! Something needs to be done.

  2. It’s time to bring back the cat o nine tails these guys are animals so when they are caught we must take the animal out of them back in the day big men use to pee and defecate after one lash the doctor is always present so 6 lashes as sides on a meal of 12 years works and they do change because psychology it’s scared in the Psyche not to rape again so let’s get into action and remember no one is above the law !

  3. There appears to be a #serial_rapist on the loose, in that part of the country!
    The Nation is definitely in need, of its own Forensic Laboratory!

  4. I’ve mentioned it before and I’ll say it again; there seems to be a serial rapist loose on the island, and targeting females living alone.

    How on earth this isn’t being tackled by the relevant authorities just beggars belief.

    The women of Antigua are getting a raw deal from the police, the government and any other relevant security authorities.

    What will it take for something to be done? A politicians wife or daughter to be attacked?

    We all have daughters, sisters and mothers that need protection. I’m sick and tired of this lack of concern and inaction. Sick!

  7. Not to worry. Cutie is very pleased with the excellent work being done by the Police. It is a pity he can’t get some of this but he now lives in a 14 bedroom mansion in an upscale location at Friars Hill, with Police guard. So he and his family are safe so there is no problem. What rape and rapes?

  10. All the time the same person is
    Same Characteristics and the same places and the police do nothing.

    But oneday God will charge this person 😡😡😡😡😡😡

  11. Antiguans continue to refuse to take responsibility for their own “self-protection”. Antiguan Police force is a joke and everyone knows this ;yet, people fail to take precautions to protect themselves.

  12. You know what is upsetting, reading in the paper that my role model Cutie Benjamin said he is satisfied with the work of the police.

    He can not be that blind or ignorant or incompetent. Do you not see what is going on, and again, it is the kind of crimes that my flooding policing tactic would drastically decrease.

    Just try the techniques once, what is the worse that can happen, inherently dangerous crimes reduce substantially, community and police begin proper cooperation?

  13. When me an anyone of our people catch him is jungle justice we teaching him…. we gonna kill his ass then call the police no sorry dey
