A 53-year-old man has been remanded into police custody by the Ofaakor Circuit Court court in Kasoa in the Awutu Senya East Municipality of the central region, for allegedly defiling his 13-year-old biological daughter.

The suspect Kwabena Nkrumah was arrested after the victim complained to the mother of pains in her abdomen following the act.

Narrating the incident, the mother, Akua Bawa told Alex Donkoh, this is the third time the husband is perpetrating such an act and that she is appealing for justice.

According to the victim's mother, the suspect raped his stepdaughter and later raped his niece who was staying with them, a situation settled out of the court.

The victim is said to be traumatized and developing psychological implications.

The suspect was remanded into police custody on  Monday, March 29, 2021, and is expected to reappear in court on the 12th of April, 2021.

According to Akua, she is financially incapacitated to follow through the court to its final judgment, in view of this, she's however worried the suspect (Kwabena Nkrumah) will further cause damage to the family if left off the hook.

She is therefore appealing for assistance for the victim and for justice to be served.
