In statement, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) said: “A 23-year-old man from Nyazura appeared before the Rusape Magistrates’ Court on rape charges.

“On the 15th of October 2024, the convict approached the six-year-old girl who was outside a kitchen and carried her to a nearby hill. They got into a cave and he ordered her to remain silent.
