A51-year-old mason has been charged for raping a six-year-old girl in St Ann after he was hired to do work at the child’s home.
Detectives assigned to the Centre for the Investigation of Sexual Offences and Child Abuse charged the worker, and at the same time implored parents to keep an eye on workmen they hire and how they engage their children.
The man, from a Hamilton Mountain, St Mary, address, was charged with two counts of rape and two counts of grievous sexual assault for allegedly assaulting the child twice, on separate occasions.
Reports are that the man was hired for work at the child’s home when he raped her.
A report was made to the police and he was arrested and charged. His court date is being finalised, the police said.
