A teenager has done an unthinkable act to his own brother after he forced him to have s*x with him at knifepoint.
A 15-year-old boy has been arraigned for allegedly sodomising his younger brother aged nine twice at knife point.
The Chronicle reports
that the boy who is doing Form Three was remanded out of custody after
his lawyer Mr Matshobana Ncube from Phulu Ncube Legal Practitioners said
probation officers were failing to access him. He is facing two counts
of aggravated indecent assault.
Regional magistrate Mr Mark Dzira remanded him out of custody to the care of his uncle to August 22 for trial. “My
client is a juvenile who has been in custody since May this year and
probation officers haven’t compiled a report on him. We pray that the
court remands him out of custody so that at least we can process the
report. He’s planning to plead guilty to the allegations and will not
abscond,” said Mr Ncube.
Giving details of how the teenager forcefully had s*x with the
younger brother at knife point, Prosecuting Mr Tinashe Dzipe alleges
that the boy called his brother, a Grade Four pupil to their bedroom.
“When he entered the room, he produced a knife which he used to
threaten his brother in case he made noise. He then ordered him to
undress and forced him to have anal s*x once,” said Dzipe.
“On a date unknown to the prosecutor during the month of April
this year, the boy went back home from visiting their aunt in Pumula
South. His older brother called him to the bedroom and sodomised him
once threatening him with a knife he was holding.”
The court heard that the matter came to light when the younger boy
refused to leave his aunt’s house in Pumula saying he didn’t want to be
subjected to sexual abuse at home by his brother.
The boy was taken for a medical examination and a report was produced as an exhibit.
