A 50-year-old man defiled a 4-year-old girl at Adam Nana, a Kasoa suburb in the Central Region’s Awutu Senya East District, leaving the child traumatized.
George, the suspect, is accused of luring the young girl to his home for Christmas gifts before defiling her.
She was then given a warning not to tell anyone about her ordeal.
After the event, the victim’s older sister, Mary Amoah, was bathing her when she noticed blood beneath her and called for help.
Mary claims that since the incident, the victim has been paralyzed with dread and has been avoiding adult males, including her father.
“I was bathing her and saw blood coming under her. So I asked her what had happened and reported it to my mother. We took her to the hospital, but we were told not to raise an alarm about it because we had no evidence.
“Before leaving for school on Friday, I saw that the police had come to arrest him, but on Saturday morning, he was released,” Mary disclosed.
The victim’s family is pleading with the Inspector General of Police to seek justice for the victim while also expressing concern over the suspect’s release barely one day after his arrest.
