One of the
touts then pretended to be a good Samaritan and led her to a parked kombi
nearby.
He locked the Kombi and raped her once without protection. The tout disappeared after the act leaving the learner inside.
Harare
provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza confirmed the case
appealing for information that may lead to the arrest of the perpetrator.
“Police are investigating a rape case involving a Grade 7 learner at a rank
along Rezende Street in the CBD.
“Circumstances
were that the complainant left home proceeding to town where she was supposed
to collect her money at corner Leopold Takawira and Jason Moyo.
“Upon arrival,
the complainant was given cash and she immediately left stating that she wanted
to go back home to finish her homework.
“On her way
back home, she proceeded at Rezende Parkade rank to get a commuter omnibus back
home.
“Whilst at the
rank, the touts started blocking her way, obstructing her from entering a
certain vehicle.
“She was
approached by the accused person, who purported that he wanted to help her.
“He ordered her
into a parked, white Toyota Hiace where he locked and raped her. The
complainant later went home, where she did not tell anyone about the
matter. The matter came to light when
the complainant’s uncle went to her school to enquire why she returned home
late.
“The
complainant was interviewed by her teacher and that is when she revealed the
rape. She was referred to Adult Rape
Clinic Parirenyatwa Hospital for medical examination,” said Insp Chakanza.
