A 90-year-old man in Zhombe, Zimbabwe has been arrested for allegedly raping his 13-year-old niece in a case that has shocked the entire district.
Sekuru Zachariah Kwega of Donga Village is also being accused of having physically abused the teenager on several occasions. He pleaded not guilty when he appeared before Gokwe-Kwekwe regional magistrate Mr Amos Mbobo last week.
He was remanded out of custody to February 4.
Court records show that Sekuru Kwega became the girl's guardian following the death of her parents. On the night in question, he and the orphan shared a bedroom while his wife attended an all-night prayer meeting in Kwekwe.
It is alleged the senior citizen woke up late at night. He then allegedly carried the 13-year-old who was fast asleep on the floor onto his bed.
Sekuru Kwega undressed and raped her, the State further alleges. His luck, however, ran out when shewoke up.
