Man Bags 20 years Imprisonment For Impregnating 14-year-old Daughter

An Accra Circuit Court has sentenced a 42-year-old father, Daniel Kwame Baah, to 20 years imprisonment for impregnating his daughter

He pleaded guilty to the charges, GhanaWeb reported.

His first encounter with the victim, who is 14, occurred in June 2019 when he forcibly inserted his finger into her private part while she slept and sexually abused her until she became pregnant.

He was dragged to court after the Girl Child Advocate attached to the victim’s primary school ‘Anyaa L/A Primary School’ discovered the pregnant victim in school uniform and questioned her.

The judge, in ruling, sentenced Baah to 20 years’ imprisonment with hard labour for each count to serve as deterrent to others

However, the sentences will run concurrently, so he will serve 20 years instead of 40.
