A forty-nine-year-old fisherman has been arrested for defiling a minor at Mumford, a suburb of Apam in the Central region.
The suspect has been identified as Kofi Nyan, who defiled the minor over a missing GH¢800.
The Fisherman Kofi Nyan was captured in a viral video telling the victim to endure the sexual encounter as a repayment for his missing GH¢800.
According to reports, the fisherman told the minor that having sex with her would cost her GH¢200 every hour in repayment of the stolen money.
The little girl pleaded with Nyan to stop, but the fisherman told her he was sleeping with her till 12 pm to teach her a lesson.
Reports suggest the shocking incident happened with some other persons hailing the fisherman to display different sexual styles with the minor, and others condemning his act.
The Fisherman Kofi Nyan has since been arrested and will be put before the court.
His four other accomplices are on the run, according to the information gathered from the police.
The minor who was the victim has been sent to St. Luke Catholic Hospital for examination and treatment.
