“On his arrival she undressed and allegedly raped him and then gave him money to silence him. But this did not work as, on arrival at home, he related the incident to his mother who immediately reported the matter to the police.”
He said the victim was taken for a medical examination and on September 8, 2023 the woman was arrested.
