The 14-year-old Kumaka girl who claimed that she was brutally raped two Saturdays ago has been admitted to the Mabaruma Hospital again.
According to relatives of the teen early yesterday morning they were forced to rush her back to the medical facility where she was treated and subsequently admitted for observation.
Relatives of the teen had earlier reported that she is experiencing extreme physical discomfort, severe emotional pain and has become somewhat of an introvert following the incident.
The alleged assailant, who was arrested on the day in question, was released on $100,000 station bail at Mabaruma earlier in the week.
The girl’s relatives related that while the teen was making her way home from Kumaka waterfront, which is a 15-minute walk, she was approached by the accused and offered a lift; but she reportedly refused.
She told police that the man, a popular taxi driver in the area, “hauled her into the car”, wound up the windows and proceeded to a desolate area where he stripped her and raped her.
The teenager told police that the sex was unprotected. She was violated both vaginally and anally and the accused ejaculated all over her face. The entire ordeal occurred in the man’s car.
A report from a medical examination done at the Mabaruma Hospital stated that the teen has evidence of lacerations and a ruptured hymen. She is being treated for infections.
In addition, relatives of the teen said they are fearful that the man may flee the area before charges are instituted.
