A 43-year-old man has been arrested on allegations of defiling nine-year-old minor in a nearby maize garden in Kihindi village in Maliba sub county in Kasese district.
No official comment yet from police over bureaucracy challenges but Ms. Ruth Labongo, the Community Development officer for Maliba subcounty agreed to the information and identified the suspect as one Mr. Misaki Kasuka, a resident of same area.
Ms. Labongo said as the victim returned from school, she was reportedly called by the suspect in a maize garden, allegedly forced her into the sinful act and gave her five cobs of maize before threatening to kill the minor should she tell anybody.
On failing to deal with the pain, Ms. Labongo says the minor was forced to open up to her sister and later the parents before the suspect was arrested and detained by police. Ms. Labongo speaking1……..
Ms. Labongo later disagreed to the belief that such suspects are possessed but only empty minded hence, calling for harsh punishments to such a man like Mr. Misaki who reportedly has two wives and nine children. Ms. Labongo speaking2……..
She said she was going to use her position to deal with the matter for justice. END.
