Gabriel Bekoe, a 60-year-old man from Abura Edumfa has been sentenced to 10 years\u2019 imprisonment for defiling a 12-year-old pupil by a Circuit Court in Cape Coast.<\/p>\n
He pleaded guilty and appealed to the court to have mercy on him.
The judge described the act as \u201cunforgiveable\u201d and that he would
have given the convict a stiffer sentence but for his age that he took
into consideration.<\/p>\n
Deputy Superintendent of Police Samuel Oduro-Kwarteng told the
court that the victim lives with her mother in the same vicinity as
the convict.<\/p>\n
On May 19 Gabriel sent the victim to buy him biscuits and on her
return, the convict lured her into his room, locked the door and
defiled her.<\/p>\n
He said the victim\u2019s mother saw her coming out of the convict\u2019s
room and when she questioned her she narrated her ordeal to her
mother.<\/p>\n
Her mother reported the incident to the Domestic Violence and
Victim Support Unit and the convict was arrested.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
