11-year-old defiled twice; police officer discourages parents from pressing charges

A police investigator has been accused of discouraging the prosecution of a case in which an 11-year-old girl was defiled twice at Kaneshie, a suburb of the capital, Accra.

The officer even asked the victim’s mother to see a typist at the Kaneshie police station to type out the withdrawal letter.

But the mother of the victim told Accra-based Joy FM that she decided not to see the typist following the severe health complications her daughter is currently going through.

The 11-year old was first fingered while she slept, thinking it was a dream.

According to her mother, the second time, her daughter was actually defiled.

The victim at the moment cannot control her bowels and urine.
