The girl fell seriously ill after the alleged defilement.

According to eyewitnesses, Yaw Oboobi, who is married with three children, allegedly defiled the girl in his bedroom at Twifo Neamakurom.

After the incident, there was a change in how the girl walked, prompting questions from her family members.
