DAILY STAR: Top Stories
The police yesterday said they may seek the help of a psychiatrist in the case of a 16-year-old girl, who is deaf and unable to speak, who was reportedly raped by her father and is now pregnant in Kabankalan City, Negros Occidental.
Kabankalan City police commander, Chief Inspector Calixto Mabugat told the DAILY STAR they are working with social workers to assess the mental health of the minor who was endorsed to them by her teachers Friday.
He said they will probably seek the help of a psychiatrist to subject the girl to therapy as she keeps changing her testimony while being interviewed by women's and children's concerns desk officers yesterday.
Calixto added that the medico legal officer's findings showed that the teenager's genitals had lacerations but they still cannot conclude she was raped. The girl's father denied the accusations when he was invited for questioning yesterday.
Reports said the suspect is at the same time also the girl's grandfather because he had also raped the teenager's mother, his daughter, before.
Calixto had earlier sought the help of interpreters in communicating with the minor.
He said the girl has been turned over to her relatives in another house.
Meanwhile, the police yesterday said they are now searching for a resident of Bacolod City who reportedly raped a 17-year-old girl after meeting her in a convenience store in Bacolod City early Saturday.
Bacolod City Police Office director Senior Supt. Ronilo Quebrar said they are now looking for an 18-year-old man whose name is being withheld, who fled after molesting the teenager.
Reports said the girl met the man in a convenience store Saturday with some of her male friends and was raped in an undisclosed place after they separated from the group.
Last month, a 14-year-old girl was also raped by her friends during a rugby sniffing session in Bacolod City.
Quebrar called on women, particularly minors, to observe precautions in dealing with male friends, especially when they don't know them well.
