A man from Rujeko, Chinhoyi, has been taken to court for indecent assault after allegedly molesting a 10-year-old girl in the boot of a car. The accused, 26-year-old Panashe Tinotenda Magusvu, was seated with the victim when the incident occurred.
According to the National Prosecuting Authority of Zimbabwe (NPAZ), the incident took place on July 13, 2024, around 6:00 PM.
The girl and her mother had boarded a Honda Fit heading to their home in Chinhoyi, with the girl sitting in the boot alongside Magusvu.
