Alfred Mensah, a 19-year-old mason from Awodua in the Western Region, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for sexually assaulting a seven-year-old kindergarten pupil, according to prosecutors. The court proceedings were presided over by Her Honour Bernice Mensima Ackon.

Mensah pleaded guilty to the charges of defilement and was convicted on his own admission. The victim's mother served as the complainant. Assistant Superintendent of Police Joseph Lartey, the prosecutor, stated that on April 26, 2026, the victim and her younger sibling were playing at the family house where Mensah resided.

Mensah had planned to sexually abuse the victim. He allegedly sent the victim's younger sibling to buy biscuits while he lured the victim into a room and sexually assaulted her. An coincidental visitor, Mary Yeboah, found Mensah having intercourse with the victim and alerted the complainant. A medical report confirmed the victim had been defiled, and police took Mensah into custody for investigation.
