Bandits gang-rape pregnant woman to death, abduct scores in Niger

An expectant mother has been gang-raped to death by terrorists in Dnakundna village in Shiroro local government area of Niger State.
The woman was ambushed by the terrorists when she and others from her village were escaping from the terrorists.
