Samuel Crabbe,18, a Mechanic who raped a 13-year-old girl, with five others, in turns, at Korle Gonno in Accra, has been sentenced to seven years imprisonment by an Accra Circuit Court.
Crabbe, who was charged with conspiracy to commit crime and defilement, pleaded guilty.

The Court was told that three of the accused persons took turns and defiled the victim in the morning while the other three committed the act in the afternoon.
Prosecuting, Chief Inspector Kofi Atimbire, said the complainant was the grandmother of the victim and Crabbe resided at Korle Gonno, together with the victim.
The prosecution said on February 14, this year, the complainant was informed that Crabbe and five others had had sexual intercourse with the victim in turns at Korle Gonno.
Chief Inspector Atimbire said the complainant on hearing this, quizzed the victim and she confirmed the incident.
