Victim moved to safe house

By CECILY ASSON Sunday, September 23 2012

A 15-YEAR-OLD schoolgirl has been removed to a safe house by police after she was raped twice by her father, police reported yesterday.

The teenager, who police said was also fondled during another attack at her home on Thursday, is currently being counselled by counsellors of the Victim Support Unit.

The victim is a Form Two student and according to a police report, she told her guidance counsellor on Thursday that the first attack occurred on August 24, and the lastest one occurred last week. In the first attack, she was at home with her father when he entered her bedroom and sexually assaulted her.

The girl was subsequently taken to the police by the counsellor and her mother, where she reported that her father held her on the bed and forced her to have sexual intercourse with him around midday on August 24. The report about the incident was made at a police station in the south-western division.

The second incident occurred on Thursday last at about 5.30 am, while at the said house, the father fondled the teenager’s breast and private parts. On Friday, police took the victim to the district’s health centre where she was medically examined.

The girl was not allowed to go back home in the interest of her safety.

Cpl Seepersad is conducting investigations.
