Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>Police in Blantyre are keeping in custody a 22-year-old man for allegedly indecently assaulting a two-year-old child. Blantyre Police Deputy Spokesperson Sergeant Aubrey said the suspect, Davie Jana, committed the offence on July 26, 2022 at around 10:00hrs at Somba Village in the district.<\/p>\n

It is reported that on this particular day, the victim\u2019s mother went to a nearby grocery shop leaving her child alone. While passing by the victim\u2019s house, Jana took the child to a nearby river after noting that she was alone.<\/p>\n

On her return, the mother did not find her child, only to be told by neighbours that Jana had taken her to the river. This prompted her to institute a search for her child, who was later found crying at the said river.<\/p>\n

When asked, she revealed that the suspect had been touching her private parts. The matter was later reported to Soche Police Sub-station and the victim was referred to Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital for medical examination.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the suspect is in custody awaiting court appearance. Jana comes from Kalolo Village in the area of Traditional Authority Somba in Blantyre District.<\/p>\n
