Kweku Ebenezer, a 32-year-old ex-convict, has been handed a 25-year jail term by the Juaso Circuit Court for having anal sex with his six-year old son at Banso in the Asante Akim South District. Ebenezer, who is said to have been previously incarcerated on theft charges, stunned the packed court when he told the court that the victim was his son.
He pleaded guilty to two counts of defilement and threat of death. Police Detective Sergeant Daniel Ocran told the court presided over by Mr. S. K. Sarpong Appiah that Adwoa Anosiwa, the victim's mother, usually visited the son who lived with the convict following a break-up of their marriage.
On one of such visits on November 7, the mother met no one outside the house but heard the victim crying in the room.
When she entered the room, she found the victim in the full grip of the father having sex with him through the anus amid screams. The accused then threatened to kill the woman if she dared inform anyone but she reported the matter to the police who arrested the convict.
