According to the headmaster George Rambanepasi, the suspect
has been suspended.
“As for alleged rape, a staffer has been handed over to
police and, as such, we are not allowed to comment on it. However, it involves
a day scholar who is under age, allegedly, who was in a relationship with
offender,” Rambanepasi wrote to parents.
“I think most details will be unveiled after the police are
done with their investigations. However, he is suspended from work as per
procedure.”
Mashonaland West police provincial spokesperson Inspector
Margaret Chitove could neither confirm nor deny that the case is being probed.
“I am yet to get information about the matter, so I can’t
comment on this,” Chitove said in a telephone interview.
Early this week, NewsDay Weekender exposed a case involving
a student at the school who suffered broken bones in a suspected case of
bullying.
Rambanepasi confirmed the incident.
“It is regrettable, but necessary steps have been taken to
address the matter. Suspects have been identified and their parents notified.
They will be excluded from the school,” the headmaster wrote to parents.
The school has an enrolment of at least 1 000 students.
