Mother wants answers

A woman whose five-year-old daughter was sexually assaulted by two boys while at a public primary school is searching for answers.

The distraught 34-year-old mother of four, who asked to remain anonymous to protect her daughter’s identity, said she was disappointed that she had not received a favourable response from the Ministry of Education after reporting the matter to them.

She told the WEEKEND NATION since the incident, which occurred on October 18, her daughter had been traumatised and no longer wanted to attend school.

She said on that date, she was summoned to the St James school to attend a meeting where she was told the details of what had transpired.

“I was told that two five-year-old boys sexually assaulted her. One stood at the front and forcibly kissed her, while the other pulled down her pants and panty and was gyrating behind her,” she said. (RB)
