It is a norm of respectable journalism that the names of rape victims are protected, especially if they are minors? Why did the newspaper publish this victim's name? Now she has to endure this public "shame" as well due to someone's negligence--or is it ignorance or callousness?

True, but I suspect the so-called sick friend was in on it. If he was really a sick person, why would he instead of his friends leave the house to buy food? How can a sick person leave his visitors behind for an errand? The two boys surely called in advance to arrange for the room.

The stupid journalist could have omitted the girl's name. She is only 16. Is that legal in Ghana?

That I agree with all of you over revealing the victims name, I find it interesting that most of us Ghanaians engage in so many unlawful and uncivilized activities, in real life we simply don't care about such issues. We like to pretend we care because we are predisposed with perfect written English.

This happens all the time and in every sphere of Ghanaian society.

Perhaps if so many of you are disgusted by this action, why don't you send a delegation to the girls family and encourage them to File a Lawsuit against who ever revealed her name.

I think to avoid stigmatization of the girl, the paper should not have withheld the girl's name. Moreover she is a minor. This is unprofessional. I hope justice will be done. Parents please teach your children especially schoolchildren signs of danger that they should avoid such as b in the nighteing in the company of boys alone.

what at all went into the goddamn heads of these stupid boys to behave like animals? even animals will not go in for younger animals. they will go in for matured animals. I feel sorry for the girl they gang raped. if this had happened to any of my daughters,I don't think I will have the patience to go to the police. I will instantly clear them come what may. this disgusting act, will surely hunt them until their death days! where are the churches and school authorities who have to prevent this kind of attitude in the schools? are we heading towards the days of Sodom and Gomorra or what? God save us from such beasts.

These boys are demons and must be incarcerated for ten years each. They have evil intentions and their association with society is dangerous.
