A 45-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly defiling a three-year-old girl at Tuba Kuwait, a suburb in the Ga South Municipality of the Greater Accra Region.
The suspect, Efo Emma, was apprehended by residents who reportedly caught him in the act.
The suspect who resides with the victim in the same house is reported to have lured the three-year-old to his room when her mother had left for the market.
Speaking to Adom News, the residents said another tenant heard the little girl cry from the suspect's room.
She then knocked on the door of Efo Emma, who refused to respond. All attempts she made to open the door proved futile because it was locked from the inside.
The tenant raised the alarm upon suspecting foul play. Neighbours who gathered broke the suspect’s door and found Efo Emma with cream around his penis and his victim, naked as well.
The suspect was subsequently taken to the Tuba District Police Command. He is currently assisting the police with their investigations.
