A farmer identified as Kobby has allegedly defiled two toddlers, both aged three years old, at Assin Odunkrom in the Central Region.
Information gathered indicates that the parents of the victims live in the same neighbourhood.
According to Madam Esi Boah, the mother of one of the victims, the two little girls were playing on the suspect’s veranda while it was raining. The suspect took advantage of the absence of the parents and lured the toddlers to his room.
Madam Esi Boah explained that after looking for the children for some time without seeing them, her instincts directed her to check for the kids in the suspect’s room.
She immediately barged into the suspect’s room, only to find him half naked with his penis erect.
The suspect, realizing he had been caught, fled and has since gone into hiding.
Madam Esi Boah added that after rescuing the children, they confessed that the suspect did not only insert his penis in their vaginas, but he also inserted the penis in their ani and mouths.
Meanwhile, Madam Esi Boah has appealed to the Central North Regional Police Commander, DCOP Emmanuel Teye Kudjo, and the District Commander, ASP Robert Kyeremeh, to immediately arrest the suspect and ensure justice is served.
The Assin South District Commander confirmed having received a defilement complaint and assured that efforts were underway to arrest the perpetrator.
Meanwhile, a medical form has been issued to the victims so that they can attend the hospital for medical treatment.
