The suspect Be-God-future Ayaa, a resident of Karombo village in Zombo town council was rescued by the police on Monday 20th March 2023 after angry residents attempted to lynch her for allegedly sexually abusing three primary school girls.

Maureen Kitembo, the Officer in Charge of Crime Investigations in Zombo, says that Police have examined Ayaa and one of her victims and confirmed that the suspect has been seducing and having sexual intercourse with her.

According to Kitembo, the 16-year-old told police that Ayaa has been having sexual intercourse with her more than four times and the last incident was last week. She revealed that two other minors are still at large.

She says that the suspect will be charged with engaging in an  unnatural offense contrary to section 145 (a) of the penal code act.
