THE Namibian police in the Omusati Region are investigating an incident of rape which allegedly occurred in the Oshitutuma village near Oshikuku sometime during October or earlier this month.
The victim is an 11-year-old girl.
According to the regional commander of the police, commissioner Ismael Basson, the victim was walking alone from school when a suspect grabbed her and dragged her into his sleeping room and raped her.
The victim’s biological mother reported the alleged crime to the police, but only many days after the incident occurred.
Basson said that the suspect is known but not yet arrested.
