Masindi Magistrate’s court has remanded to prison a 36-year-old man for two weeks for allegedly faking his daughter’s defilement.
Eric Bagajire, a resident of Kirasa cell in Masindi Municipality was remanded by grade one magistrate Selsa Biwaga. According to court proceedings, Bagajire provided false information to the police, claiming that his 13-year-old daughter, a primary four pupil at Masindi Army primary school had been grabbed and defiled by Vincent Katwesige, a 23-year-old inmate at Masindi prison.
Bagajire alleged that the defilement had taken place in an unfinished house near the prison. However, suspicions arose when medical examinations conducted by the police and Masindi General hospital yielded negative results, showing no signs of penetration or defilement.
Further investigations and interrogations uncovered that Bagajire had coerced his daughter into falsely claiming that she had been defiled by Katwesige.
Upon realizing that the police had uncovered the deception, Bagajire went into hiding but was later apprehended in Masindi town. During interrogations at Masindi Central police station, Bagajire admitted to providing false information and requested forgiveness.
He revealed that he had collected blood from slaughtered animals at a nearby abattoir and applied it to his daughter’s private parts to create the illusion of defilement.
