The Community Relations and Information Officer of the Pujehun Police Division, Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Kenawa John Squire has revealed that the Family Support Unit of the Pujehun Police Division is currently investigating an alleged case of sexual penetration of a three-year-old girl.
According to ASP Squire, on Thursday, August 24th, 2023, at approximately 8:00 am, Hawa Kengo, a resident of Ngeyawamie Village, Barrie Chiefdom, Pujehun District, accompanied her three-year-old daughter to the Pujehun Police Station, reporting that the child had been sexually abused and penetrated on Thursday, August 22nd, 2023, at around 5:40 pm at their home.
Ishiaka Konneh, a twenty-seven-year-old man from the same village has been alleged as the perpetrator.
Upon receiving the report, the police requested a medical examination for the victim. The victim and her mother were later accompanied by police personnel to the One Stop Centre Office in Pujehun town.
The medical report stated that the victim experienced vaginal and body pain as a result of the alleged sexual penetration.
The police medical request was endorsed, and the statement was obtained from the victim’s mother, who claimed to have witnessed the alleged penetrator sexually penetrating her three-year-old daughter.
The police visited the scene of the crime, and the alleged perpetrator was apprehended and is currently helping the police with further investigations.
I am in no way in support of rape or forceful penetration. But this case seems suspicious if you ask me. According to the article, the mother alleged to have witnessed her daughter being penetrated, and she waited 2 whole days to report the matter to the FSU. If the man really did penetrate her, one should wonder what kind of mother she is to have witnessed it, allowed it to happen, and also wait for 2 whole days before reporting the matter.
Although the one that wrote the article also made the mistake of stating Thursday 22nd and Thursday 24th August.
I’m just saying that for a mother to witness such and did not immediately attack the man, but also waited for 2 whole days before reporting it is fishy.
