Pastor’s son on the run after raping 13-year-old

Mar 14, 2010 News

Police in Berbice are trying to locate a 19-year-old man who allegedly raped a 13-year-old girl and is now on the run.
Reports are that some time in the latter part of February, the teen’s parents took her to a hospital after she began vomiting uncontrollably.
It was later discovered by a Doctor that the teen was almost six months’ pregnant. After being questioned the teen related that she was raped by the son of a Pastor who leads a church in their village.
The matter was immediately handed over to the police and a probation officer.
The teen related that the man called her into his house while his parents were away and asked her to assist with peeling some plantains.
The teen said that she opted to assist since she was very close with the family and attended their church. She added that when they were finished the man locked the door and turned up the television set so that no one could hear her screams. It was then she was raped.
However, since the police informed the relatives that they were interested in talking to their son he has vanished from the area.
The teen’s family said that the police have been very helpful in the matter as they have made several checks at the family’s house but to no avail.
A source close to the investigation said every time the police visit the pastor and his wife they give conflicting stories about the location of their son. However, after each visit the teen’s family has to endure endless threats from the young man.
This newspaper was told that the man would call the teen’s family telling them that they should go find the real father of the baby.
In the meantime, the police are still trying to locate the man who remains on the run.
