The suspect is a resident of the neighbouring Anenober cell, also in Ibuje Town Council.<\/p>\n<p>It is reported that the suspect, who is still at large, waylaid the victim when she was returning from a nearby shop at around 7.30PM on Sunday. He then forcefully had sexual intercourse with the minor before beating and leaving her with severe injuries.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Denis Ogwang Akora, a resident of Odit village said the defiler overpowered the girl and took her to a sunflower garden where he sexually assaulted her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe was returning from a trading centre where she had gone to buy drugs then she met this man on the way at a place where there is no home, and this man captured her and pulled her into a nearby garden. He fought this girl and broke four teeth and also injured her tongue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Geoffrey Otim, the LC1 chairman of Odit cell, confirmed the incident saying it was reported to Ibuje Police Station.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I got the information, I went to the LC1 chairman of Anenober where this man resides and we found that he was not at home. So, we reported the matter to police and started pursuing the suspect who was hiding in a forest,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Jaspher Angole, the officer in charge of the criminal investigations department at Ibuje Police Station, said the law enforcers were hunting for the suspect, who was still on the run.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am calling upon the community to cooperate with us and give us information that can help us to arrest him so that he can face the law,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
