Maybe the girl will be able to tell who is guilty or who is the father, we will also not leave this girl alone. We will ensure she continues to be in safe custody so that her future is secured. Mashonaland Central Provincial Medical Director, Dr Cremence Tshuma, said a government gynaecologist has been assigned to closely monitor the young victim of child sexual exploitation. Tshuma said: > She is 28 weeks pregnant today. All examinations are normal for someone of her age. We have assigned a gynaecologist to make a plan for her delivery. The Social Welfare Department established that the pregnant girl comes from a broken family, which made it easy for perpetrators to take advantage of her as the mother often left her alone while fending for the family. *More Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
