Zimbabwean News You Can Trust

In a disturbing incident that has sent shock waves across the Budiriro suburb in Harare, a 22 year old man was arrested for allegedly attempting to rape his two year old cousin sister in his bedroom.

According to a report made to the police, the man was with his minor cousin in his bedroom when the mother of the victim came rushing after she heard the toddler screaming.

On trying to open the door, she found it locked.

The troubled mother tried to knock, but there was no response, which prompted her to seek assistance from her neighbors, who later broke the door lock and gained entry into the room.

Upon entering the house, they reportedly found the accused with his trousers dropped to the knee level, with the pants of the victim in the right pocket of his trousers, and they took him to the police station, leading to his arrest.

Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) Harare Provincial spokesperson Luckmore Chakanza confirmed the arrest and said investigations are underway.

“Complainant and accused person are cousins. Informant is the biological mother to the complainant. On 26 October 2023 around 1500 hours, the informant heard the complainant crying inside the accused person’s bedroom. She checked for her and noticed that the bedroom door was locked from inside.

“Informant knocked the door but no one responded to the knock until she called for help from her neighbours who then broke the door lock and gained entry into the bedroom. Upon entering the room accused person was found asleep with his black trousers and red short dropped to the knee level. Complainant’s pants were found in accused person’s right trousers pocket. Accused person was taken to ZRP Budiriro by members of the public and a formal report was filed.
