Apac Central Police Station in Northern Uganda is holding a 20 year old man for allegedly raping his 103 year old grandmother.
The officer in charge Criminal Investigations Department (OC CID), Pamela Akullu, has confirmed that the suspect is in their custody.
According to the Officer in Charge of Crminal Investigations Department Pamela Akullu, the suspect broke into his grandmother, Jupenia Alira’s house in Amia B village last Saturday 8, July 2017 at around 4am; used excessive force and raped the old woman.
