Six weeks after child molested…No word from police, suspect still on the run

Dec 15, 2012 News

 

 
The investigation into the alleged rape of a two-year-old girl at Imbaimadai, Region Seven, on November 4, last, has come to a standstill and the suspect continues to roam free.
The child was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) by her mother the day after she was assaulted. At that time, the mother did not know that her daughter was molested.
She claimed that she had taken the child to the hospital for a check-up because she realized that the child was not eating. It was there she learnt from a doctor that her two-year-old daughter was raped.
The police were summoned to investigate the matter. To date, the only information the police are giving is that “the matter is under investigation” nothing else.
A police source told this newspaper that no officer has gone to Imbaimadai to investigate the matter. The source claimed that no one from the Police Force has ever picked up that file after the “verbal investigation” an investigator had with the child’s mother.
A few days after the child was molested, the mother told Kaieteur News that “I was going to the shop so I take the padlock and I just rest it on the door and I left and go to the shop.” Her husband was at work.
“When I come back I didn’t see the padlock on the door, I see it on the step, but I didn’t really think anything. I go and I see my son on the bed alone, so I ask he where he sister deh, and he said that he don’t know. So me and he went and search around the place but we didn’t find her,” the mother claimed.
She said she decided to stop searching and returned home.
“As soon as I walk in the yard I hear she crying at the back of the yard so I go there with the torchlight and I see her.”
The child’s mother claimed that she found her daughter crying bitterly. “She didn’t have on her top just her skirt and no underwear. I pick her up and I bathe her and put her to sleep.”
Although the woman had found her in distress, with bruises on her skin, she did not at first think that her daughter had been molested.
She claimed that the following day she realized the girl wasn’t eating so she rushed her to the city at her husband behest.
“When I come to the hospital that is when they tell me that she was molested and they called in the police,” the child’s mother claimed.
