A MAN from Makau village in Seke has appeared in court for allegedly raping a 15-year-old girl whom he later offered US$1 to conceal the assault.
Tapiwa Nyakundivena (35) pleaded not guilty to rape before
Chitungwiza regional magistrate Mrs Gloria Takundwa. The State led by Ms Pamela
Dzinduwa alleged that in August last year at around 4:30pm, Nyakundivenga went
to where the girl lived looking for her uncle and was told that he had gone to
Chitungwiza.
He went away but came back a few minutes later. When she
opened the door, he dragged her into the bedroom and raped her twice. The girl
tried to call for help but no one came.
After the double assault he offered her the US$1, which she
refused to take. Her uncle returned at around 7:30pm and she immediately told
him what had happened.
They went to the police and Nyakundivenga was arrested.
