The husband to a teacher at a school in the outskirts of Bulawayo who showed a 13-year old pupil an adult movie before taking of him clothes and asking the minor to be intimate with him has been slapped with 210 hours of community service.

The man (29) who cannot be named to protect the identity of the child pleaded not guilty to the charge of indecent exposure when he appeared before Bulawayo magistrate Merilyn Mutshina.

The magistrate convicted him at the close of the state case after overwhelming evidence given by the child in court.

Mutshina sentenced him to 12 months in jail. Six months of the sentence were suspended for five years on condition of good behaviour.

The remaining six months was suspended on condition he performed 210 hours of community service.

Prosecutor Memory Takaedza told the court that on December 8 2014 at 7am the man who is married to a teacher and stays at the school cot6tages where the child also stays was at the school cottages where the pupil lives.

During the absence of his wife (a teacher) the man started playing adult videos which he showed to the girl.

He then moved to his room where they live with his wife and later went to the girl's room with no clothes on. He asked to have sex with her but the she refused. The girl later reported the matter to the parents and a police report was filed leading to the man's arrest.

In his plea of not guilty the man said, "I did not do anything. I did not remove my clothes or show her adult movies or even ask for sex. It is clear that the girl was forced to embarrass me as we used to have quarrels with her aunt. I have never done that and I will never do it."
