The Nsawam Circuit Court on Tuesday sentenced Razaak Ibrahim, 27 year-old self-styled teacher to 15 years' imprisonment with hard labour for defiling two children aged between nine and 11 at Pakro, near Nsawam. Ibrahim pleaded guilty.
The court, presided over by Mr S. S. Appiah heard that Ibrahim who used to teach her victims in the evenings, somewhere in April went to their house on his usual teaching assignment.
The parents of the victims were not around so after a few minutes he asked the victims to remove their pants, which they obliged.
Ibrahim then asked them to come and sit on his lap in turns and he defiled them and warned them not to mention the incident to anybody.
One of the victims was taken to Accra to continue her schooling and while there she fell sick and told her father about her ordeal with Ibrahim.
The father reported the matter to the Nsawam Police, who arrested Ibrahim. He admitted defiling the children during interrogation.
Before passing judgement, Mr Appiah warned that he would deal ruthlessly with anybody who appeared before him on a similar charge.
