Teacher netted for having sexual intercourse with a 14-year-old girl
Police at Jenda have on January 12, 2024 arrested a primary teacher Zondwayo Ngulube 47, on suspicion that he had sexual intercourse with a 14-year- old standard eight learner on December 21, 2023 at Embangweni in the district.
It is alleged that on that particular day Ngulube woke up a security guard and went with him to the matron who looks over girls in the female hostels at the school and demanded the girl be taken to his house. Whilst at his house he forced himself on the minor and had sexual intercourse with her.
The victim did not reveal this to anyone up until January 10, 2024 when she started feeling pain and itchy at the private parts, thus when she informed the matron who reported the issue to Mqocha police unit who referred the victim to Kalikumbi health centre.
The medical report revealed that the victim is having itchy vulva due to sexual intercourse encounter.
Ngulube has since been charged with having sexual intercourse with female child which contravenes section 138 subsection (1) of the Penal Code and will appear before court in due course.
Ngulube hails from Mdilira village, Traditional Authority Mzukuzuku in Mzimba district.
