An unemployed teenager has been sentenced 18 years imprisonment in hard labour for defiling a four-year-old kindergarten girl at Debiasem in the Suaman District.

Chief Inspector Agyemang said when the victim's mother got home around 10:00 am she sent her to the convict, who took advantage by dragging her into a nearby cocoa farm, tied her hands and mouth, and defiled her.

He said after the act Mensah abandoned the victim in the cocoa farm and fled from the cottage.

The prosecution said around 1500 hours the victim's mother became worried since there was no sign of her daughter returning home and started searching for her.

He said the mother later found the victim in a cocoa farm near the convict's cottage with blood around her womanhood and there narrated her ordeal to the mother.

The Prosecution said the victim's father was informed and he reported the matter to the Dadieso Police, where a medical report form was issued for him to send her to the Juaboso government hospital for examination.

Chief Inspector Agyemang said Mensah was subsequently arrested.
