Police in St Catherine are still searching for a teenage girl who ran into bushes naked after she was found in the arms of a man who is facing sex-related charges in the Spanish Town Resident Magistrate's Court.
"We cannot find her, Your Honour, and the school that she attends is giving no cooperation to the police, but we will try to locate her," said investigating officer, Detective Corporal Kirk Roache, when the matter was mentioned yesterday.
The man and two women are before the court because of the incident. The man is facing carnal abuse and harbouring a juvenile charges, while one of the women is facing charges of harbouring a juvenile. The other, who is the child's sister, is charged with aiding and abetting carnal abuse.
Allegations read in court on June 24 revealed that the man, a 35-year-old construction worker, took home the 15-year-old girl, along with her 28-year-old sister, to his matrimonial house.
Elder sibling
He allegedly told his wife that both sisters have fallen on "hard times" and he was helping them out.
It is reported that when the wife left for market the man had sex with the child with the knowledge of her elder sibling. When the wife returned she was told what took place. An argument developed and the husband placed her in another section of the house and moved in with the 15-year-old girl.
The police got wind of the argument and went to the house, where they allegedly saw the juvenile and the husband wrapped up on the matrimonial bed. The wife and other members were also seen in the back room.
It is reported that when the police attempted to enter the building, the wife tried to prevent them, and the husband also tried to run away.
During this time, the girl ran away and has not being seen since.
The wife, who is charged with harbouring a juvenile, was granted $200,000 bail, the husband $200,000, while the sister who has been charged with aiding and abetting carnal abuse was granted $20,000 bail.
They are to return to court on August 5 when the case will again be mentioned.
