A 39-year-old man from Matobo has been sentenced to 20 years in prison by the Gwanda Magistrate Court for the rape of his 17-year-old daughter.

According to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), sometime in June 2023 at around 8 a.m., the teenager was at home cleaning her room when her father entered the room without knocking.

The man accused his daughter of having sexual relations with other men instead of coming to him to fulfill her sexual desires. He forcibly lifted her onto the bed, removed her clothes and then raped her.
