The braveness of a 16-year-old boy (name withheld) who deliberately held onto the male organ of a paedophile for more than 30 minutes, has led to the arrest of the culprit. For as long as the boy, a student of the New Adubease Senior High School, kept his firm grip on the manhood of 40-year-old Stephen Osei, the alleged sodomist stood still, wailing for help until neighbours rushed to the scene and rescued him. He had succeeded in undressing the boy after giving him alcohol to get him drunk, becoming almost comatose. He had allegedly pulled out his manhood and was trying hard to penetrate the boy's backside when he regained consciousness. Realising the intention of Stephen, the boy quickly grabbed his manhood and secured it firmly in an iron-grip until Stephen's cry for help attracted neighbours who came to rescue him from his predicament. He was later handed over to the New Adubease police and on Friday, September 30, he was arraigned before a circuit court in Obuasi. Stephen pleaded guilty to the charge of unnatural carnal knowledge and the court, presided over by Mr Ayisi Addo, remanded him in prison custody to reappear on November 12. Prosecuting, Chief Inspector Mohammed Arumah, told the court that Stephen who works as a taxi-cab driver lived in the same house with the boy. He said Stephen had been brought to the house from Accra by a woman who had rented an apartment in the boy's father's house at New Adubease. The woman had just returned from abroad and had employed Stephen to be her driver. On September 23, the prosecutor said Stephen lured the boy into his room by offering him an alcoholic beverage to drink which he claimed was made abroad and that no drink could be compared to it. The boy took the drink and became drunk and Stephen took advantage and undressed him while he slept on his bed. The court heard that Stephen removed his manhood and was in the process of penetrating him when the boy regained consciousness and fiercely held onto his manhood until his arrest.
