A police investigator has been accused of discouraging the prosecution of a case in which an 11-year-old girl was defiled twice at Kaneshie, a suburb of the capital, Accra.
The police officer (name withheld) was said to have met with the families of the suspect and the victim to resolve the October 21 case at home.
The officer even asked the victim’s mother to see a typist at the Kaneshie police station to type out the withdrawal letter.
But the mother of the victim told Accra-based Joy FM that she decided not to see the typist following the severe health complications her daughter is currently going through.
The 11-year old was first fingered while she slept, thinking it was a dream.

According to her mother, the second time, her daughter was actually defiled.
The victim at the moment cannot control her bowels and urine.
The suspect has since confessed to the criminal act and has promised to pay the medical bills.
He has also promised to pay ¢2,000 as compensation to the family, but the woman said she wants justice for her daughter.
