🚨”Prince Harry’s Africa Parks guard raped me as I held on to my baby ... then I was paid £500 compensation”🥺 It’s infuriating to see The Duke of Sussex whose on the board of directors completely ignore this issue, then whine to the BBC about his privileged safety and act smug at concerts🤦🏾‍♂️ It was the middle of the night when the young mother was abruptly woken by someone knocking at her house. She assumed it was her husband returning from a neighbouring village – but it was a guard from the African Parks conservation charity demanding she got up immediately & followed him. The guy was wearing their uniform and had a gun,’ said Ella Ene. ‘He was threatening me, saying “I’ll shoot you” if I did not do as he said. He told me he wanted to take me to their camp.’ The mother of two says she and her fellow villagers’ movements are monitored by the guards to ensure they are in their homes at night rather than the forests, so the ranger used her husband’s absence to order her out. She bundled up her baby Daniel – one month old and too young to leave at home – to follow Meghan Sussex’s husband’s African Parks guard on the ten-minute walk to his base. With brutal but brave honesty, she described what happened next, & how the man raped her beside the road as she clung in terror to her child. She said the guard ordered her to the ground, tore off some of her clothes and assaulted her in the pitch-black night, ignoring her screams for help and the cries of her baby. ‘I was holding my baby while being raped and trying to protect him,’ she said. ‘My first reaction had been to protect my baby. It was very violent.’ The rapist then continued escorting his agonised victim to his base, where he casually told colleagues he had brought Ella with him as her husband could not be located. Courageously, Ella complained to his boss about the attack. As a result, she says, he decided it would be best for his guards to take her back to her village of Kokoua, where they arrived at about 4am. After hearing about the attack her husband rushed to the African Parks camp. There he says he was handcuffed and beaten about the face and body while held captive for nine hours. ‘I just wanted to see my wife,’ he said. Ella, whose body had not recovered from giving birth at the time of the assault, said both she and her baby needed hospital treatment. Still, almost three years after the rape, she is left in physical and mental pain, unable to forget the shocking assault and no longer able to get pregnant. She told me: ‘African Parks are very bad people. Everybody who works with them is really bad to us. That man was cruel, he was inhumane.’ She was targeted because she is Baka, an ethnic group who live in central Africa’s rainforests. ‘We are treated like animals. Actually, animals are treated better than us because they are protected – & that is so hurtful.’ At one point as we talked, a forest guard turned up to visit the village chief & Ella looked visibly alarmed. Afterwards, she admitted: ‘I was afraid, really afraid. When I see the uniform, it’s like a trauma because I remember what happened.’ A doctor later told me African Parks guards visited the hospital after Ella had been examined and threatened staff. ‘They did not want the prosecutor to see the right reports so they came to persuade us to change them’ A court-appointed mediator ordered a payment to Ella equivalent of about £1,300. She says she has received just £520, which a court document I have been shown states ‘was a deposit of the compensation for having been victim of an ecoguard’ and that ‘other instalments will be paid monthly’. All the cash she has received went on medical treatment. Her husband says: ‘After the rape, the health of my wife is not good. Everything I earn goes for her health and the baby’s health.’ Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are not humanitarians and they grift of African and don’t actually care about African people. 2/3 #PrinceHarry #AfricanParks #MeghanSussex
