An alleged American paedophile, Patrick Ken Larbah, 65, who is said to have video-taped about eight Ghanaian children sucking his penis in his house at Adjomikpe near Sege in the Dangme East District, is presently in prison custody pending further investigations into the allegation. The 65-year-old retired teacher from Minnesota in the United States of America is believed to be one of the many paedophiles in the world who lure innocent children into lewd acts and sell the pictures to operators of pornographic websites. At the end of every video, he comments on the act of each child and explicitly mentions their names and locations. One of the comments read: An 11-year-old black cocksucker, filed, location in Dawa, Ghana. While another had the caption: ‘A six-year-old cock sucker, she loves the taste of cock,’ and filmed at the request of the victim. The video recording of the sex acts lasted about three minutes each, with some of the victims looking exhausted after what looked hectic for them. In the videos, the accused person's face never appeared as he held their heads and from time to time asked them to look straight into the camera. In other videos, some of the victims were seen sitting in the background in a queue, apparently waiting for their turn, they all kept a straight businesslike face, except for one of the victims who was believed to be living with the alleged paedophile. The accused, according to the Tema Regional Coordinator of the Domestic Violence and Victims Support Unit (DOVVSU), assistant superintendent of Police (ASP), Mrs. Rebecca Nyamah, has denied the charges leveled against him. However all the eight children have named Larbash as the man who gave them toffees, food and also allowed them to watch movies in his house in exchange for sucking his penis. Speaking to the Daily Guide exclusively in her Tema office on Wednesday, the DOVVSU coordinator noted that on August 28, 2009, her outfit got a complaint from the Regional Director of the Department of Women and Children Affairs, Accra, secretariat that some children confessed to her that a certain man had been asking them to suck his penis for toffees. The DOVVSU coordinator disclosed that the complainant narrated to her how some little girls between the ages of 3 and 12, after a sensitization programme on Domestic Violence Act 732 at Adjomanikpe, confined in her about the alleged unholy acts of the accused. Continuing with her narration, Mrs. Nyamah observed that the children further alleged that Larbash usually lured them into his room with toffees to suck his almost dead-nerved penis and that he also compelled them to swallow his semen after discharging into their mouths. The children alleged that the expatriate always recorded the acts with his video camera and sometimes mobile phone. "Armed with that information, a team from the regional command was sent to Adjomanikope where the accused was arrested in house number ADJ 118,” she stated. She said a search was conducted in the house of the accused and a computer and the suspect’s cell phone, nokia 6080, both containing pornographic materials were found. Items such as digital camera, pen drive and other recordings gadgets, believed to have been used by the accused in filming the sex acts on the kids were also retrieved from the house. “All the children who were identified in the video footages were later interrogated, including one of the them who live with the accused as house-help, all admitted having been sucking the penis of the accused several times for toffees, food and film show,” she told Daily Guide and added that after thorough investigations, the accused was charged with the offences. She explained that one of the victims had early on reported Larbash’s behavior to her parents who later asked her to demonstrate to them how the accused lured them into sucking his penis. She stated that the said child moved closer to her father and tried to pull of his trousers to demonstrate how she always sucked the accused person’s penis. The accused was said to have relocated to Adjomanikope after fleeing Techiman where he was living, upon realising that elders of the community were beginning to suspect him of luring little girls into similar sex acts.
