Man, 71, in custody for raping granddaughter, 13

Jul 10, 2016 News

Police in “G” Divison on the Essequibo Coast have charged a 71-year-old  Bush Lot security guard with rape of his 13-year-old biological granddaughter, after the teenager told her sister that her grandfather drugged her with beer and then had sex with her. The man was charged and remanded until July 26.
Reports have indicated that the 71-year-old took his granddaughter to his Bush Lot home.  On that occasion he purchased a phone for the child in order for her to remain silent. Two weeks later, the man made another promise to the girl. This time he promised her a bicycle. However, the teenager’s older sister suspected something was amiss and proceeded to question the young girl who revealed what her grandfather had done.
The police were called in and the man was arrested and charged. The teenager who lived with her father and stepmother was taken to the Suddie Public hospital where a medical examination was done.
Recently a Tapakuma Lake wheelchair bound man was accused of raping his niece. The man was arrested and later released on station bail.
