Teacher jailed 15 years for defiling boy, 12

A pupils teacher who had anal sex with a 12-year-old boy has been sentenced to 15 years’ imprisonment in hard labour by an Accra Circuit Court.

The convict, Kwabena Anim Seth, 30, pleaded guilty to a charge of defiling a child under the age of 16 years.

He is said to have convinced the victim and sexually assaulted him on three different occasions at New Achimota in Accra.

The convict was supposed to be helping the victim with his online assignment but took advantage of his vulnerability and sodomised him in his mother’s living room.

The victim’s mother, according to court document presented by ASP Agnes Boafo, noticed that the victim was having a chat with the convict on WhatsApp on a phone she bought for him for purposes of online studies due to the COVID-19 which led to the suspension of school.

The victim’s mother according the documents, saw a pornographic cartoon on the phone and upon interrogation the victim told her it was from the teacher.

The victim then informed the mother about the convict sexually assaulting him on three separate occasions.

The mother then decided to set a trap for Kwabena Anim Victor in order to get him arrested.

The mother, according to court documents, made the victim to chat with the convict who agreed to come to the house and he subsequently did.

Just as he entered the room, he is said to have removed his shirt while he was in his boxer shots and was about to remove the victim’s shirt.

Unknown to him, there were people hiding in the kitchen who then came out and apprehended him.

The victim’s mother then called the police who came around to arrest him.

Kwabena Anim Seth upon integration is said to have confessed and told the police that he had carnal knowledge with the victim on two occasions and not three as the victim claims.

The court presided over by Christina Cann convicted him on his own plea and sentenced him to 15 years’ imprisonment in hard labour.
