Police detain one man, so far, as they continue investigations into reported sexual assaults on two underage girls

18

REAL NEWS: The Police are probing two incidents involving the sexual molestation of underage girls by persons known to them.

In one instance, the mother of a 12-year-old girl reported to the Special Victims Unit that she had been raped by a man at Pigeon Point between April 1 and 30.

Investigations into this report continue, and the alleged perpetrator is facing charges of unlawful sexual intercourse.

Meanwhile, the father of a 10-year-old child took her to the Police and reported that she had been assaulted by a 25-year-old man.

The sexual assault allegedly occurred four times over a period of three weeks, and the accused has since been detained by the Police.

Counselors say these types of sexual encounters with young girls continue to be perpetrated, often leaving the children scarred for life.

Penalties for sexual encounters with children of 12 years and under include life imprisonment, and many residents believe that stricter punishment should be implemented as a deterrent to these perverted acts.

However, a legal source says the issue rests with the sentencing guidelines, which grant discounts to persons who plead guilty and those who have no previous convictions of a similar nature. CLICK HERE TO JOIN WHAT’S APP GROUP

        “A social inquiry report painted a NEGATIVE picture of the manner in which Hughes socialises with women.”

        “The court was told that the violation had impacted the young victim so severely, SHE WANTED TO END HER LIFE and had engaged in SELF MUTILATION. In this case, Hughes, who was 50 years old at the time, touched the child’s breasts and tried to force her to kiss him more than once, while they were in his vehicle.”

        Speaking of the late Customs Officer,Nigel Christian. He was gun down in cold blood.His Mother said,there were 4 men that took him from her home.However,why are there only 3 men in Custody since that time.What has happen to the fourth man? Did he vanish into the thin Antigua air? Did he swim out into the Atlantic Ocean and never to be seen again? Where the hell is that 4th Person? Time for that person to be arrested and be charged as the other three in Custody.
        WHY THAT CESSPOOL KNOWN BY ALL AS CUSTOMS IS NOT BEING PURGED FROM THE TOP DOWN TO THE LOWEST BOTTOMS.WHY THE MAN WHOM IT HAS BEEN ALLEGE BY GASTON BROWNE THAT FORGE HIS SIGNATURE.WHY HE WAS NEVER ARRESTED AND BE CHARGED FOR FORGERY AND OR FRAUD? IS IT BECAUSE THE COMRADES ARE ABOVE THE LAWS OF GASTON BROWNE’S LAND, ALSO KNOWN AS ANTIGUA?

  5. These damn perverts and pedophiles need to be dealt with the full extent of the laws. These assholes, upon conviction, need to be put away for the rest of their natural lives in exile on the Pedophile and Pervert Prison on Redonda (PPPR). Pedophiles cannot be cured and they infest the whole society, hence, they must be isolated for the safety of our children. This is a remarkably unusual country. In many places they would just get the hell beat out of them over and over. Some would hang them according to their own laws. In some of the nations in Mother Africa the people themselves just stone them. They’ve got it good here. What a paradise.

  6. What about the well known business man that molested his daughter best friend in a room at Jolly Beach??? His daughter friend was 13-years old. That case has never saw a day in court and the same business still out there looking up under little girls skirt.

    • Report him Janet!!!!
