The Police in Bushenyi have in custody a born-again Pastor for allegedly defiling a 14-year-old girl pregnant and impregnating her.

Martial Tumusiime the Greater Bushenyi Police Spokesperson has identified the suspect as Apostle Solomon Kushemererwa, 36, a resident of Tank Hill Bushenyi town, a Pastor at Starlight International worship Centre, Nyakabirizi in Bushenyi Ishaka municipality.

Kushemererwa was arrested after a complaint by the victim’s father who reported a case at Bushenyi Central Police station.

According to Tumusiime, the girl was checked and the police medical report showed that she was one month pregnant. 

He noted that the girl was defiled in March but kept quiet.
