Choreography teacher jailed for s3xually abusing 7 children

A 50-year-old man has been sentenced to six years in prison for sexually assaulting seven young girls in Txifo Heman, in the Heman Lower Denkyira district of Ghana.

The victims, all minors between the ages of six and seven, are pupils at a cultural dance school operated by the convict.

According to Chief Inspector Joseph Kussah, “the Prosecutor, a choreography teacher, exploited his position as a cultural dance instructor to abuse the trust of his young pupils.”

The convict allegedly used manipulative tactics, including buying soft drinks and toffees for the children and later apply lubricant on his penis and fingers to facilitate the abuses.

The act was detected after the girls fell sick, one after the other and were sent to the hospital by their parents where they admitted that they have been defiled by the convict.

However, through the vigorous efforts of the Central North Regional Police Cyber Unit, the convict was located and arrested at Adenta, in the Greater Accra Region.

The man was brought before the Twifo Hemang District Magistrate’s Court to answer seven counts of indecent assault, and pleaded guilty to all simplicita charges.

He was therefore convicted by the court on the basis of his own plea.
