The Western Regional Office of Domestic Violence and Victims Support Unit (DOVSSU) has mounted a search for four young men who gang-raped a 15-year-old girl in May at Fijai, near Takoradi. In an interview with the Ghana News Agency in Sekondi on Thursday, The Western Regional DOVSSU Coordinator, Mr Lawrence Gbele, said the crime was committed on May 28 at about 11:30 hours.
