SUSPECTED DEFILER ARRESTED IN APEITOLIM

Police in Apeitolim have arrested one Okia Michael, aged 18 years for allegedly defiling a three-year-old girl. The incident occurred on 30th July 2023 at around 4 PM at Locwae village, Apeitolim Parish, Apeitolim Sub-county, Napak District.

Based on received intelligence, the suspect was believed to be hiding within the same locality. Police successfully located and arrested him from his hideout.

It is alleged that the parents left the girl alone at home to attend prayers, during which time the suspect took advantage of the situation and defiled the little girl.

Police investigators have visited the scene and gathered vital evidence to support the charge against the suspect. Once the investigations are completed, he will be arraigned in court to face justice.

We appeal to all parents to prioritize the safety and well-being of their children. It is crucial to avoid leaving little ones unattended and instead entrust them to the care of a responsible person whenever they need to leave home or travel. This will significantly reduce the risk of harm and protect our children from potential dangers.

Let us all work together to create a safe environment for our young ones, where their innocence and well-being are safeguarded at all times.
