Kaieteur News- A 15-year-old girl was allegedly raped on Friday by a 45-year-old man, who offered her a drop to school.
The incident occurred between 11:00h and 13:00h at Supply, East Bank Demerara (EBD).
During an interview with this publication, the victim’s 39-year-old father related that his daughter is usually carried to school by a particular bus every morning. However, on the day of the incident, she had to go school for the latter half of the day. At about 11:00h, the victim was on the public road awaiting a bus, but was having an issue with getting transportation. Whist waiting, the suspect who drove a private car, rolled up to her and offered her a drop near to school. This publication understands that the suspect is known to the father, however not to the victim.
The father told Kaieteur News, “Anyhow she go in the car with he … so in Supply, he tell she he gatta go in his farm, he said he minding layers.”
Upon hearing this, the teen reportedly informed the man to drop her at the road head and she will catch a bus, but the suspect continued driving into the street at Supply. “He just didn’t stop and he just carried she in, he come out and the place had a gate and everything. He opened the gate, he drive into the yard, and right in the compound; he raped she and he have dogs and so in the yard,” the father said. He said the suspect even offered his daughter $60,000 to duck the matter.
The victim collected the money and the suspect reportedly dropped her off in the vicinity of her school. While in school, the teen told a friend, and later informed the driver, who usually picks her up every day. She then went home and recalled the harrowing details of her being rape to her mother. The family, then reported the rape to police. The suspect was arrested. The money that was given to the teen is lodged at the station. The investigations continue.
