David Ogwang, 23, faced the wrath of an angry mob who beat him into a coma for allegedly spending a night with a 16- year- old primary seven- pupil.
The police fortunately came to his rescue and rushed him to hospital where he is now receiving treatment under the police watch.
It’s alleged that Ogwang on Tuesday went and picked the minor from her recognized residential home in Aloet Akum Cell A. He then brought her to the teachers’ quarters.
This is where he allegedly had canal knowledge with her, well knowing she is a minor. During the early hours of Wednesday, he took her back home.
However, her parents had already realized that their daughter had gone missing.
Oscar Gregg Ageca, the East Kyoga Regional Police Spokesman says that parents interrogated her on where she spent the night. The interrogation made her reveal the relationship she had with her teacher.
This prompted residents to storm the teacher’s quarters where they beat Ogwang into coma.
Ageca says that the Officers rescued and detained Ogwang at Opuyo Police Station. This is before transferring him to Soroti East Division Station.
He added that statements from the suspect and witnesses were obtained. Additionally, both the suspect and the victim underwent medical examination before he is produced to court.
One witness revealed that they have been monitoring the moves of the teacher ever since they heard about the affair. Apparently, the teacher took advantage of the rainy night to sneak undetected into the girl’s home and took her.
“He was lucky that it was very cold that most people entered their bedrooms early. It would have been his last day that night had we found him with the girl,” Bosco Okello, a resident within Aloet Akum Cell A says.
