A tragic incident unfolded in Honde Valley as a 54-year-old man allegedly beat his 14-year-old daughter to death, accusing her of dating a neighbor’s son.
The accused, Amos Nyamangodo, allegedly resorted to concealing the crime by hastily arranging Rufaro Nyamangodo’s burial without a post-mortem examination.
The assault, carried out on December 23, caused severe injuries leading to Rufaro’s untimely demise.
Law enforcement was alerted after the victim’s brother discovered her lifeless body on December 29, prompting the father’s arrest following his report to Ruda Police Station.
