AFTER nearly four years of alleged sexual abuse of rape for his underage daughter, a 43-year-old man was last week arrested.
The suspect was arrested last week Friday after he allegedly raped his ten-year-old girl at the Uuholamo village in the Okankolo constituency.
The victim was only six-year-old at the time when the father started sexually assaulting her.
The Nampol Head of Oshikoto Community Policing Sub-Division, Chief Inspector Ellen Nehale-Kangulu, said the victim was first reportedly molested by her father in 2020, which continued to-date.
Nehale-Kangulu indicated that the matter was only reported to the police on Friday, after the victim revealed the ordeal to the mother
According to Nehale-Kangulu, the suspect allegedly found the daughter in the sleeping room during the afternoon after school.
“The suspect grabbed her and raped her. And after he finished, he left home to go to local cucashops,” she said.
Nehale-Kangulu indicated that the victim later informed her mother, who was not at home during the time of the incident.
She said that the suspect has been arrested and he will appear before Ondangwa Magistrate Court this week.
