A 47-year-old farmer and video operator, Charles Donkor, on Friday appeared before the Mpraeso Circuit Court for defiling a 14-year-old primary six pupil.
Donkor, who pleaded not guilty to the charge, was remanded in police custody for two weeks.
Prosecuting, Detective Police Inspector Christian Apronti told the court, presided over by Mr Alex Owusu Ofori that the victim, who attends the Ehiawoaewu District Assembly Primary school near Akoase lives with her mother while Donkor who lived at Tiawiah operates a video show in a number of villages including Ehiawoaewu.
He said the victim's mother detected that her daughter had been pilfering some items like rice and provisions from her store to Donkor whenever he comes to the village to operate the video show and in turn watch the video films without paying.
The prosecutor said the victim's mother confronted Donkor and warned him not to allow the girl to enter the video room to watch films again.
On April 09, Donkor went to the Ehiawoaewu village to operate his video film show and was able to lure the victim into his room after the show around 10.30 hours and had sex with the girl while her mother was seriously looking for her.
The prosecutor said at about 01.00 hours, the victim's mother had a tip-off that the girl was in Donkor's room so she went there and after several knocks on the door, the victim came out but took to her heels.
A report was made to the police and Donkor was arrested while a medical form was later issued to the victim for medical examination.
The report showed that the girl had been violated but Donkor denied having had sex with her.
