A Ghanaian man, 27, known as Derrick Amponsah, has been jailed for 7 years for raping a 15-year-old student.
The incident took place at Manso Yawkrom in the Amansie West District of Ashanti Region of the West African country.
A detailed medical report revealed the victim’s hymen had completely been broken.
Prosecutor, Detective Chief Inspector Stephen Ofori, told the court Amponsah used his fingers, penis and mouth to abuse the girl, MyJoy Online reports.
In the course of the attack, which left her bleeding profusely from her vagina, he allegedly bit the victim’s clit**ris.
He said it was about 11 a.m. On 15 April 2020, the accused phoned the victim to go and do his home washing.
Mr Amponsah returned at about 1 p.m. to see the dirty clothes unwashed.
He went to the victim’s house to call her, according to prosecution but she refused to follow him. He returned and tried to bring the girl into his house to follow him.
On reaching there, he asked the girl to take the lead into his room but she objected.
The accused then dragged her inside, pushed her onto the bed and forcibly had sex with her.
Detective Chief Inspector Ofori said Amponsah’s mother later showed up and provided water for the victim to clean herself.
Derrick Amponsah was arrested following a report and he subsequently admitted the offense in his caution statement to police.
He was arraigned and pleaded guilty to two counts of assault and defilement.
Both acts contravene Sections 84 and 101 respectively the of Criminal Offences Act, Act 29 of 960.
The court presided over by Her Honour, Joyce Boahen convicted him on his own plea.
