Father arrested for attempted incest with daughter
Forty-four-year-old Edward Kenneth Baidoo is in
the grip of the Sekondi police for allegedly
attempting to commit incest with her 17-year-old
daughter.

The Western Regional Crime Officer, Mr. James Kofi
Abraham told the GNA in Sekondi that the victim
whose mother is in Nigeria lived with her
half-sister and the father at Sekondi Baakano.

The Crime Officer said the victim (name withheld)
is a 17-year old JHS graduate and slept in the
same room with her half sister.

The police said on May 7 when the victim’s
half-sister had traveled, the father took
advantage and entered the victim’s room and
inserted his fingers into her vagina and attempted
to have sexual intercourse with her but she
refused.

The father then subjected her to severe beatings
when she escaped naked and sought refuge with a
co-tenant.

The next day, the co-tenant accompanied the victim
to report the father’s act to the Sekondi Domestic
Victims Support Unit and was arrested.
