A 52-year- old primary school teacher is in the hands of Rukungiri Police for defiling and impregnating a 13-year-old p.7 candidate.
Martial Ahimbisibwe, a Social Studies teacher at Nyakibale Upper boarding primary school in Rukungiri Municipality defiled the candidate who is currently five months pregnant.
According to Moses Nanoka the Rukungiri District Police Commander, Ahimbisibwe was picked up on Sunday from his home in Kagashe in Eastern Division in Rukungiri Municipality following a complaint from the victim's parents.
The monster was then locked up at Rukungiri Central Police Station where he waits to appear before courts of law on charges of defilement once investigations are complete.
The Chairperson Nyakibale Upper Boarding Primary School Management Committee Joseph Rutaro says the suspect appeared before the School Management Committee early last week and asked for forgiveness, before pledging to take care of the victim and pay her tuition after delivery.
The suspect further blamed the devil for deceiving him into commit the act because his wife only gave birth to a single daughter.
But, the school management couldn't conceal the matter since it is criminal and violates children's rights, hence reporting him to police.
