8-year-old Zimbabwean Girl Gives Birth
The 8-year-old Bindura girl who got pregnant after being raped by two 17-year-old men has given birth through a Caesarean section.
The two teenagers who are allegedly her brothers from the same farm where she lived have since been arrested.
She gave birth at Bindura Provincial Hospital where a government gynaecologist has been closely monitoring the young victim of child sexual exploitation.
The girl attended Kambira Primary School as a student before leaving when she became pregnant.
Gibson Chigamha, the headmaster, asked that the child be sent to Bindura Hospital because he was not sure that her bloated stomach was the result of an illness.
This was after the school heard about the Tsholotsho case of a nine-year-old minor who gave birth last year.
