A 16-year-old boy was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly violently raping a six-year-old girl at Uukwanampembe village in the Omusati Region’s Tsandi Constituency.

According to the Namibian Police Force’s Omusati Commander, Commissioner Ishmael Basson on Thursday, the incident allegedly occurred on Wednesday night.

Basson said this comes hours after a 51-year-old man was arrested at Eendombe village, also in the Omusati Region, for the alleged rape of his 16-year-old biological daughter.

Police investigations in both matters continue.
