A 26-year-old Nigerian has been sentenced to 15 years \u00a0in jail \u00a0for defiling a mentally-challenged \u00a0girl.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sunday Ali was said to have lured his \u00a010-year-old \u00a0victim to an uncompleted building and slept with her.<\/p>\n

He was said to have bolted after the act but unfortunately for him, he had been seen by a witness.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”rzuwXU8rgy9XPnJnLgK8wyFyXSWUcnln”]Ali pleaded guilty to the offence of defilement of a child under 16 years and was convicted on his own plea by the court, presided over by Mrs Rita Agyeman Budu.<\/p>\n

Delivering judgement in camera, the trial judge said the convict should have known better and at least shown some pity, considering the fact that the victim was an imbecile.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will sentence the accused person to 15 years imprisonment since the victim is a helpless 11-year-old imbecile who the accused should have had pity on, instead of taking advantage of her,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n

Presenting the facts of the case, the prosecutor, Chief Inspector of Police J.B. Asante, told the court that on March 7, 2015 at about 6 a.m., Ali spotted the victim sitting alone in front of her house while her mother was busy arranging her wares in her shop.<\/p>\n

He said Ali lured his victim into a weedy and uncompleted building adjacent the victim\u2019s house and sexually abused her.<\/p>\n

After the act, the prosecution said Ali ran out of the building but was seen by a witness whose house was attached to the uncompleted building.<\/p>\n

After some minutes, the victim came out of the building crying and complained of severe abdominal pains to the witness who took her to the mother.<\/p>\n

Later, the mother also noticed some blood stains in the victim\u2019s pants and during interrogation, the victim revealed her ordeal to her mother.<\/p>\n

Chief Inspector Asante said a report was made to the police and Ali was arrested.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
