A clinician at Mchinji District hospital has been arrested for allegedly defiling a seven year-old-girl.
A Police report shows that the suspect, Lovemore Phiri, organised a party at his house where he got drunk.
It says after the party, Phiri offered a lift to the girl, who is daughter to his colleague, and consequently defiled her on the way.
Mchinji Police Officer In-Charge George Mtetemera confirmed the arrest adding that a medical examination was conducted at Mchinji District hospital where it was confirmed that the girl was defiled.
The case comes barely days after the court sentenced a man into a life imprisonment for infecting a teenage girl with HIV.
