A 34-year-old groundsman was arrested for raping a maid who had dropped off her employer’s child at school.

Joseph Nyamunda, a groundsman at Westlea Primary School, allegedly dragged the 15-year-old maid into a fowl run and raped her.

Harare provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Luckmore Chakanza, confirmed the arrest.

“The complainant and the accused person are in a relationship. One day the victim went to Westlea Primary School to drop her employer’s child.

“On her way home, the accused person called her to the school fowl run.
