According to Sunday News, a 55-year-old disabled man in Zimbabwe raped a two-year-old girl as he did not have a wife.

The little girl and her four-year-old brother were left with their grandmother while the mother went to work. The grandmother had to leave home to fetch some water and she asked her neighbout to look after the children while she was away.

The man took advantage of the woman's absence and ordered the two children into the kitchen. He asked the brother to stand guard while he violated the young child.

When the mother returned home from work, she found the child crying and upon questioning, the kids told her the truth.

The mother filed a complaint with the police and the man was arrested.

The rapist with one leg admitted violating the little girl sexually. He even defended himself by saying that he was having difficulties living without a woman and revealed that he committed the offence as compensation.

The Plumtree magistrate has ordered the rapist to be examined by doctors to be examined for mental stability.
