A 12-year-old girl was allegedly fondled and licked by a 43-year-old driver who appeared at Twifo Praso District Court in the Central Region’s Twifo Atti-Morkwa District, in Twifo Eduabeng.

Chief Inspector Joseph Kusah, the prosecution’s case presenter, explained that on January 3, 2024, at approximately 8 a.m., the accused, George Antwi, a herbal medicine practitioner, invited the victim to his home for medicines for skin ailments she had been suffering.

Then, after deceiving the victim into thinking he was giving her medicine, he carried her into his bedroom, stripped naked, and forced her onto the bed.

The accused then turned off the lights, closed the windows with curtains, turned on the radio, and began touching and licking the victim’s vagina. Antwi was unaware that the victim’s two younger sisters had slipped into the room and saw what had occurred. Antwi threatened to kill them and their parents if they informed anyone in the village, in an attempt to silence them.

Chief Inspector Kusah told the court that despite the threat, the children alerted their parents, who made a formal complaint with the police and obtained a medical document.
