A 34-year-old father has been sentenced to four years in prison for sleeping with his teenage daughter in a bid to “end poverty in his family.”

The victim, 14, who cannot be named because she is a minor, told the court that she had consented to having sex with her father as she also believed that it was the only way their poverty would end, reports iHarare.

The Zimbabwean man was convicted based on his own plea of guilt of having sex with a minor and sentenced to four years in jail.

The accused wept uncontrollably saying he started having sex with his daughter when an unnamed uncle told him that it would end the family’s poverty.

Prosecutor, Fidelicy Nyamukondiwa, told the court that the accused usually took advantage of his wife’s absence to be intimate with his daughter in his bedroom hut.

However, the abuse came to light last week when an anonymous caller alerted the police at Ngomahuru base.

Police conducted investigations and arrested the accused.

You think a 14 year old would easily stand up to her father?

YES, she "consented" according to the story but the Law doesn't see it like that. The adults should both be jailed for long periods. They are animals.

If you have sex wirh someone who's not legally an adult , even if she was the one who asked you to "log in", it's statutory rape.

TRUE, it is rape..... but that child was brainwashed by her father/uncle, but the fact that she indeed believed that their money issues would be solved if/when she sleeps with her father, says a lot about this 14yr old kid state of mind. a few brain resetting lashes may solve that.
