RAPTIO means the mass abduction of a large number of women or girls.  In April 2014, over 250 schoolgirls were abducted from the small Nigerian town of Chibok, by the militant Islamist group Boko Haram. Seven years later over 100 are still held in captivity

It was reported that some parents took their daughter's school uniform down and unfolded and refolded them every evening.
