Weeks back, the DSS had come under the hammer over the story of the  teenager who allegedly got pregnant in its custody. The news had made headlines in the Social Media. It was reported that the teenager, allegedly, arrested because of her relationship with an alleged leader of unknown gunmen in the State, had become pregnant while in the custody of the DSS. Her offence, as well as that of other girls, it was alleged, is a suspicion  that they are dating members of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB, and its militant wing, Eastern Security Network, ESN.

But a source at the DSS disclosed that the teenager was already about two weeks pregnant, unknown to the Service, when she and the others were arrested in a bid to use them to trace and arrest “a notorious leader of the unknown gunmen who specialized in the beheading  of his victims in Imo. He is also alleged to be in the habit of  intimidating young girls into a relationship with them. He became, still is, a security nightmare to security agents in the State as he has defied all efforts made to track him or arrest him to answer to the alleged atrocities he committed in the State.
