That in response to the widespread reports about random abduction of women in Abuja, FCT by AEPB and law enforcement agents and due to her own personal experiences, the first Defendant set up an NGO, the Dorothy Njemanze Foundation to advocate for justice for victims of these violations. The 1st Plaintiff avers further that she complained about her assault and random abductions to the Commissioner of Police, Public Complaints Commission, the National Human Right Commission, the Chief of Army Staff, and other Law Enforcement Agencies of the Defendant but she has not been provided with redress till date and these abductions against women on the street of Abuja still continue unabated. On her part, the 2nd Plaintiff avers that on 9th January, 2010, on her way back from her brother’s birthday with some of her friends, she was abducted by 10 men who came out of nowhere and started beating her and taking pictures of her as they almost stripped her naked. They touched her breast and her buttocks and some of them put their fingers in her vagina. While they were beating her, they hit her in her eyes and nose thereby causing a tear which blurred the vision in her left eye and left her with a chronic synopsis. The 2nd plaintiff further avers that the armed uniformed men threatened to shoot her if she did not enter into a waiting bus fearing for her life she complied. These armed men did not ask her for any form of identification, even when she identified herself as a student and Redbull employee, they still unlawfully arrested and took her and her friends to their office. 7
