The reverend attached to Bukedi diocese was arrested on Tuesday near Kibuku central police station where he had gone to report about the girl’s deteriorating health condition. 

Police in Kibuku District in eastern Uganda have arrested a reverend and his wife after their son allegedly defiled and impregnated a 15-year-old student.

The reverend attached to Bukedi diocese was arrested on Tuesday near Kibuku central police station where he had gone to report about the girl’s deteriorating health condition.

Bukedi North region police spokesperson, Ms Immaculate Alaso, said they arrested the couple to help with investigations.

She said the girl disappeared from her parents’ home in September this year before her father got to learn, weeks later, that she was at the cleric’s home.

When further inquiries were made, it was discovered, according to Ms Alaso, that the girl was pregnant after she was allegedly defiled by the cleric’s son, one Emma from their home at St Andrews Church of Uganda, Kibuku town council.
