An Accra Circuit Court has jailed a factory worker to 180 days in prison for touching a 10-year-old girl's breast and requesting her to suck his genitalia.

After the court found Emmanuel Mbachu, 26, guilty of the charge of indecent assault, this occurred.

The complaint was made by a businessman who lived at Palladium in Accra, according to the prosecution, which was led by Superintendent of Police Agnes Boafo.

The victim and the accused, who has since been found guilty, share a home in Korle-Gonno.

On January 29, 2023, at about 10:00 am, the complainant who is the victim’s uncle, came to Korle-Gonno to visit the victim’s father, but he did not meet him or the victim in the house.

The prosecution said as the complainant was still waiting, the victim’s father had called the complainant and asked him to check on the victim for him.

It said the complainant then asked the children playing in the house whether they had seen the victim around.

The prosecution said two children informed the complainant that they saw the victim entering the accused person’s room.

It said the complainant knocked at Mbachu’s door but there was no response.

It said a Police medical report form was issued to the complainant to seek medical care for the victim.
