A 43-year-old man from Chinotimba, Victoria Falls, has been remanded in custody for allegedly raping a 13-year-old girl at knifepoint.
The court heard that on October 10, 2024, the accused entered the complainant’s bedroom while she was alone, armed with a knife, and forcefully undressed her before committing the crime. He then threatened to kill her if she revealed the incident to anyone.
The matter only came to light on January 12, when the young girl confided in her aunt about her ordeal.
The accused appeared before the court and was remanded in custody until January 28.
