The trial court heard that the man came to the minor’s home where he found her playing with her brother and sister who were all minors. Their mother had gone to a nearby dispensary as she had been unwell.
He lured the girl to follow him to his house which she obliged since he knew him as their loyal neighbour, where he defiled her and infected her with STIs.
