Members of the Disabled People’s Network (DPN) of Seafield, West Coast Berbice are distressed that an 18-year-old mentally challenged girl was brutally raped, allegedly by a minibus driver.

They have joined with the mother of the teen in seeking justice and are calling on the relevant authorities to “take serious action” so that such acts can be prevented.

The driver who was taken into custody has since been released
