He said the girl was locked in the vehicle while driving up and down the highway until it became dark.
“The driver, after dropping off passengers, went to a location along the highway and started sexually assaulting the girl,” he said.
“While assaulting her, he opened a can of beer and forcefully gave her to drink. The girl told police that she became drowsy because it was her first drink of beer.
“The girl struggled and broke open one of the doors and fell out of the vehicle and ran into the bush.”
Rubiang said the driver went after the girl who hid in the bush.
“When she heard the vehicle being driven away (by the driver’s son), she stepped out of the bush only to be confronted by the driver who dragged her into the bush and raped her,” he said. “The girl tried to fight back but the driver hit her on her forehead and she fell unconscious. The driver then tore off her clothes and raped her.
“After he was done, the drivers son picked up his father and that was when one of the girl’s uncle hopped onto the vehicle and found his niece bleeding and her clothes torn. He remained quiet as he was alone. The driver and his son then dropped off the girl in their house and left. Early next day, the girl did not feel well and her family took her to the hospital. A policewoman from the sexual offence squad was also at the hospital when she saw them helping the girl out of the vehicle and the girl’s torn underwear dropping. The policewoman then followed the girl to the ward and enquired what had happened to the girl.
“She went to the police station, lodged a police report, took it to the doctor to examine her to confirm that she had been raped.”
Rubiang said the policewomen then arrested the driver.
