Sakir Akkan, a 21-year-old illegal alien from Turkey, has been arrested in upstate New York for allegedly forcing a 15-year-old girl into his car, threatening her with a metal pole, and raping her. The incident occurred in Albany on May 14, with Akkan reportedly targeting the teenager as she walked down a street in the early hours. Albany Police and Democrat lawmakers are being accused of covering it up.

After taking the girl to an isolated area, Akkan allegedly undressed her and committed the assault. The victim managed to escape and seek help, sustaining scratches on her legs during the ordeal.
A 15 yr old girl raped by an ILLEGAL ALIEN in the city of Albany and the public doesn't get notified? We are suppose to believe this wasn't covered up by the city administration? Bullshit. This is a national story. What the hell went on here? @dbongino @megynkelly @glennbeck

Akkan, who is not a U.S. citizen, had a previous encounter with authorities when he was arrested by U.S. Border Patrol agents in California last year after illegally crossing the border.

This case adds to a series of recent incidents involving illegal immigrants, including the tragic murder of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray in Texas by two illegal Venezuelan migrants, Franklin Jose Pena Ramos, and Johan Jose Rangel Martinez. Jocelyn's funeral is set to take place today.
