A father who allegedly defiled his own three months old daughter has been sent to the High Court for trial.
Prosecution alleges that Zaidi Kanongo a resident Geregere village in Buikwe district defiled the toddler who had been left in his care by the mother.
On Friday the Director of Public Prosecutions ordered for his trial after prosecution presented the committal papers before Mukono Magistrate Court.
He committed the alleged offense on the 19th of September 2020 at Geregere village in Buikwe district.
Evidence shows that the mother of the victim had left the child with her own father, to go out to buy food, when he committed the said offence.
Prosecution further states that when she returned after 20 minutes, the father had undressed the baby and also changed into shorts while lying on top of the toddler.
She then rushed the baby to Kawolo hospital where the doctors examined her and confirmed that the baby was defiled after spotting fresh bruises and her private parts had became red.
