MOST OF THE TIME, men end up in jail because they are accused of sexually assaulting women or girls.
In this strange case, though, it was a woman who wanted and tried to seduce a young child.
Ntombiyosizi Ndlovu, who is 41 years old and lives in the Bulawayo suburb of Pumula South, is in jail because she had sexual relations with an eight-year-old child. She was arrested after she went before Western Commonage Court Regional magistrate Sibongile Msipa-Marondodze.
She said she wasn't guilty, so she was kept in jail until her trial on January 27. The court heard that when Ndlovu saw the boy playing with his friends outside his house, he fell in love with him right away. She couldn't control her dirty desires, so she called him to help her read a WhatsApp message on her phone.
The child, who didn't know what was going on, ran over to help with respect. Ndlovu, who was salivating at the unholy thoughts that were going through her head, led the boy into her bedroom and locked the door so that no one else could come in.
The court heard that she took off her clothes, played with the boy's manhood, and sucked it, which made the boy's sexual temperature rise.
She had sex with him, and that was the first of many sexual encounters that left the woman feeling ashamed. After the boy's innocence was taken away, he supposedly went to Ndlovu's house for sexcapades, which made his grandmother suspicious.
She asked her grandson questions with a lot of worry. Her worst fears turned out to be true.
The kid sang like a canary and didn't leave out any details about the many times he had sex with Ndlovu. In a daze, the grandmother stumbled to a police station and told them what had happened, which led to Ndlovu being arrested.
