After examining the girl, the doctor called the PM (military police). She told the police that the baby had come to the infirmary with vaginal discharge and complaints of a strong odor that bothered her.
The doctor asked her about her sexual life and examined her. The initial diagnosis was candidiasis/vaginosis, but after talking to her grandmother, she discovered the alleged crime of raping a vulnerable person. The girl’s grandmother told the doctor that she started bleeding vaginally at the age of six and contacted the Child Welfare Council.
She also said that at the time the stepfather was bathing the girl and she complained that he pressed on her vagina and touched her. As a result, the mother broke up with her stepfather, but got back together with a man, which aroused suspicion. To make matters worse, the grandmother was worried that her granddaughter was looking for her with health problems.
“Fear and Loathing”
According to the girl’s account, the abuse and rape must have taken place about three years ago, and the author must be her stepfather and her mother’s current boyfriend. The child also said “that his presence causes fear and disgust.”
The Board of Trustees and the civilian police were called to the scene. Custody of the child was transferred to a counselor who placed him in a foster family. Report BUT+ tried to contact DPCAMI (Delegation for the Protection of Children, Adolescents, Women and the Elderly), but until this posting there was no response.
