Man Beats 2-Year-Old Daughter To Death For Bed-wetting
Police have arrested a 39-year-old man after he allegedly fatally assaulted his two-year-old daughter for soiling blankets.
Police
spokesperson said the incident happened last Friday, but the suspect,
Million Runhare, was arrested the following day. The child's battered
corpse was recovered from Runhare's house where he allegedly kept it
overnight.
"We
got a tip-off about the incident and we attended to the scene on 2
February. We have since arrested the suspect Runhare and upon
interrogation he said that he fatally assaulted his daughter because she
was soiling her pants," Zhanero said.
He said the police discovered the corpse with fresh and old wounds, as well as a wooden stick lying beside the deceased infant.
"The
deceased had deep cuts on buttocks, her back, ribs and other moderate
wounds all over her body. Some of the wounds were not fresh, meaning
that the kid was a victim of (constant) abuse by her father. She had
been killed a day before," he added.
The infant's body was taken to Chiredzi General Hospital for a post mortem. Runhare is expected to appear in court soon.
