One Edrissa Sanneh last Friday, March 5th, told the Special Criminal Court presided over by Justice Moses Richards that he did not rape the victim but instead they had sex based on the consent of the victim, who came right into his house.
 
The accused is alleged to have had unlawful carnal knowledge of a 13-year-old girl on the 3rd of October 2009 at Sukuta, Kombo North in the Western Region. When the matter was mentioned, he pleaded not guilty to the charge.  Justice Moses Richards at that juncture adjourned the case to March 26, 2010 for the prosecution to call in his witnesses.
