Barber Rapes Girl (13) For Failing To Pay For A Haircut
A barber, only identified as Jimmy from Masarakufa Village in Mudzi, is allegedly on the run after he raped and impregnated a 13-year-old girl after she failed to pay for a haircut.
The girl is now six months pregnant.
The victim’s 39-year-old mother resides at Tagarika Flats in Mbare.
She recently told H-Metro that following the rape of her daughter, her neighbours are now accusing her of “selling” her daughter to men in exchange for money. She said:
I have four children and this one is the third born.
The day she was raped, I left her at home alone and accompanied her father to collect rentals.
She visited a barber called Jimmy for a haircut.
On arrival, she discovered that she had lost money along the way, but the barber went ahead and cut her hair.
He later came to my daughter at night claiming he wanted to know if she had found the money.
He raped my daughter for the whole night at our house.
She only disclosed this after one of our neighbours detected signs of pregnancy.
I never saw any signs of pregnancy until her tummy grew and this has affected me so much.
People are calling me names when I walk with her.
I am afraid of leaving her alone now, as I fear that, maybe, something worse might happen to her.
The girl’s father, and his younger brother, were reportedly against lodging a police report to ‘‘protect’’ the family’s name.
