Prosecutor Tinashe Makiya told court that on November 6 last year, the suspect picked the girl from a bus stop in Waterfalls and took her to a city lodge, where he allegedly abused her the whole day.

After allegedly abusing the girl, the suspect ordered her to take a shower and later drove her home after ordering her not to tell anyone, but the teenage girl would not hide her alleged abuse.
