Residents of Tanoso near Sunyani in the Brong Ahafo region are in a state of shock after it was revealed that, a father in the town had allegedly impregnated his 13-year-old daughter.According to the girl, she lived with her grandmother while the father also lived in a different house. However she visited the father time to time to fetch water for him and washed his clothes and it was during one of those visits that the incestuous act took place.The girl whose name is being withheld stated that, one visit, and after doing some chores, the father asked her to pick something for him from his bedroom but he stealthily followed and pounced on her asking her not to shout.She said her father covered her mouth with his hand and slept with her, adding that the act continued until she noted that she was pregnant.She said her grandmother confronted her demanding who was responsible and she told her it was her father.The grandmother, it is alleged, thereafter gave the teenager some concoctions which she drank, aborting the pregnancy, an allegation she has denied but admits the girl's father had sexual relationship with her.But the 13 year old girl has demanded that the police arrest her father for him to face the full rigours of the laws because, she had stopped schooling due to the unbearable ridicule by her schoolmates.The victim has also been reportedly defiled in a bush near a river in the town as well as “gang-raped” in a kitchen.Her uncle, Paa Kwame who revealed this said that, the family was planning to organize spiritual cleansing for the girl, when they got the shocking revelation that the girl's own father had had sexual relationship with her.He said the father had absconded after the issue came out, and this is making it difficult for any rituals to be performed immediately.In a related development, the Omanhene of Tanoso Nana Asare Baffuor II has said that he wants to meet all witnesses in the case before a decision could be taken to deal with the customary aspect of the matter.According to him, some pacification should be performed to the gods, even though the police will have to deal with the criminal aspect.
