A 21-year-old unemployed man, has been handed a 10-year jail term by an Accra Circuit Court for defiling an 11-year-old boy.The convict, Benjamin Sam, admitted to committing the crime by having anal sex with the boy when he was put before the court presided over by Sedina Agbemava.The trial judge convicted him on a charge of defilement and sentenced him to 10 years imprisonment with hard labour.Presenting the facts of the case to the court, the prosecutor, Chief Inspector I.A.A. Ahor, said both the victim and the accused person are based in Accra.He narrated that on July 30, 2012 at about 1:00pm, the victim went to the seaside to play football with his friends.On his way home, he met the convict who called him but he refused to attend to his call and immediately took to his heels. Sam chased the victim and when he caught up with him, he pulled him into a wooden structure and forcibly had sex with him.Sam after sexually abusing the poor boy ordered him to leave the scene immediately, but the victim reportedly started weeping and this attracted the attention of a group of good Samaritans who apprehended the accused and handed him over to the police.In Sam’s caution statement, he admitted to the offence and was subsequently charged with defilement.
