Police capBy SYLVIA MWEETWA –
A  FIFTY-TWO-YEAR-OLD Mkushi farmer has been arrested for allegedly defiling a 10-year-old girl who was selling fritters within a village in the district.
The farmer identified as Dickson Mokola of Mwitwa village is alleged to have defiled the minor whom he found in his yard early this week.
The girl was scared going home after incurring a shortfall on fritters she was selling on behalf of her parents.
Central Province police  chief Standwell Lungu said the  accused  who was arrested yesterday took  advantage  of  the  situation and dragged  the girl  into his  house  where he defiled her.
Mr Lungu said the incident happened around 18:00 hours and that the suspect has since been arrested and charged with defilement and would appear in court soon.
“I can confirm that a  girl aged  10 was  defiled by  a  52-year -old man.
This was  after the girl  failed  to  go  home  for fear  of being beaten by  her parents  after incurring a  shortage on the  fritters she was sent to  sell and  spent two days  away  from home,” she said.
The girl later went home crying and later reported the incident to her parents who in turn reported to the police.
