Chief Inspector Gyamfi said two days later, the victim's mother saw the accused person near her house. The prosecution said when the mother enquired about the dress, the accused person asked the victim to accompany him to his house to collect it. She stated that on the victim's return later, her mother detected that she was walking abnormally, and therefore became suspicious. Chief Inspector Gyamfi said when the mother questioned the victim, she disclosed that the accused person defiled her in his room. Consequently, she said, a report was made to the Sakumono Police who immediately arrested the accused person.
