Man Arrested For Having Canal Knowledge With 2 Underaged Girls In Monkey Bay

Police in Monkey Bay have arrested 68 year old Welemu Mapepa for allegedly having sexual intercourse with two girls aged 8 and 9.

Spokesperson for Monkey Bay Police Alice Sichali said the suspect, on 21 April, called the victims to help him do the household chores at his house.

She says after they were done with the chores, the suspect gave them a phone to watch cartoons.

“Later he undressed them one by one and defiled them. The victims went to the lake where they explained their ordeal to their friend who took them to their parents who reported the matter to us,” said Sichali.

Results from Cape Maclear hospital indicated that the victims were defiled, hence the arrest of the suspect.

The suspect is expected to appear before court soon.
