A heartless father has been caught red-handed r*ping his own
daughter allegedly to teach her how to become an adult when she grows
up.
A randy father has been caught pants down r*ping his 13-year-old
daughter. However, the man stunned the court by telling the judge that
he was merely teaching her to be an adult.
New Zimbabwe reports that the Mahlanzi village father, who cannot be
named to protect the victim’s identity, was caught by his son committing
the heinous act.
Gokwe-Kwekwe regional magistrate, Amos Mbobo, convicted and sentenced
him to 20 years in prison. He will however, spend an effective 18 years
behind bars after two years were conditionally suspended.
Magistrate Mbobo said cases of rape of children by parents and guardians were on the increase and called for stiffer penalties.
Giving details of how it happened, prosecutors told the court that on
July 12 this year, the girl was preparing to go to school when his
father raped her.
“The victim was preparing to go to school when her father approached
and instructed her to lie on her stomach before he forcibly undressed
her and raped her once,” prosecutors said.
The minor’s brother found their father raping her and informed their
mother who in turn made a police report leading to the arrest of the
accused.
