Grade 7 girl defiled, impregnated

A 14-year-old grade seven pupil at a named school in Kazungula district has been defiled and impregnated by a suspect only identified as Mbaimbai aged between 20 and 30 years old.

Kazungula Police Station received the report yesterday around 17:27 hours from the mother of the victim and a resident of Simasiku village in chief Sekute’s area.

The mother of the victim alleged that the suspect is from Ng’andu village within the same chiefdom.

According to Southern Province Police Commanding Officer, Auxensio Daka who confirmed the report in a statement, the incident is believed to have occurred on an unknown date and time but in Simasiku village.

“Brief facts of the matter are that a female relative of the victim suspected that the child was pregnant due to noticeable physical changes. She raised the concern with the victim’s mother, who then questioned her daughter. The victim initially denied having any contact with a man,” said Mr Daka.

He said the victim was later taken to Kazungula District Hospital for a pregnant test which confirmed that she was four months pregnant.

Upon further inquiries, the girl disclosed that she had been sexually involved with the suspect whom she had met while returning from her grandmother’s village.

Mr Daka said the victim stated that the suspect had proposed a relationship which she had accepted and that she later visited him at his home and thereafter, continued engaging in sexual intercourse until she became pregnant.

“A docket of defilement has been opened. No arrest has been made yet but investigations into the matter are ongoing,” Mr Daka said.
