The Department of Child Protection Unit in Rumbek, Western Lakes State on Thursday reported that a 40-year-old man was accused of raping a four-year-old girl.
The Unit Officer Samuel Maper said the act took place on July 31 when the girl was found suffering, according to doctor’s report, Radio Good News reports.
He said the suspect is in the police custody and the girl is under treatment.
Maper urged the public to avoid rape because it is a crime where a perpetrator can face imprisonment for seven or fourteen years.
This was the only rape case reported in the office of Child Protection Unit this year in Rumbek.
