A man has been jailed for 60 years for raping his brother’s daughter and a mentally challenged woman on different occasions.
Venganai Tenga raped the daughter that he stayed with, three times and the mentally challenged woman once.
Magistrate Zuyu however, suspended 30 years of the sentence on condition that Tenga will not commit a similar offence in the next five years. This leaves Tenga with an effective 30 years in prison.
He got 15 years on each count.
Prosecutor Ronald Kwangware said in the first count, Tenga (30) of Muchokwa village, Chief Nyakunhuwa in Zaka approached the girl who was fetching firewood. He pushed away the firewood and tripped the girl. He lifted her skirt and raped her.
