Father Sentenced to 20 Years for R+ping His 17-Year-Old Daughter

A 47-year-old man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison with hard labour after a court in Ghana convicted him of repeatedly incest with his 20-year-old biological daughter.

The convict, Kwame Ti-Zaaeku, was found guilty by the Lawra Circuit Court in the Upper West Region after investigations by the Lawra District Police revealed that he had s+xually ab¥sed his daughter, a Junior High School student, over a prolonged period.

Investigators also established that he repeatedly threatened to k+ll the victim if she reported the ab¥se to anyone.

Following a full trial on Friday, July 24, 2026, the Lawra Circuit Court in Ghana, presided over by His Honour Stanley Adjei, found Kwame Ti-Zaaeku guilty of r+pe and issuing d+ath threats against his biological daughter.

The court sentenced him to 20 years’ imprisonment with hard labour for the r+pe conviction and an additional 10 years with hard labour for threatening to k+ll the victim. Both prison terms will run concurrently, meaning he will serve them at the same time.

The court also ordered the Lawra Department of Social Welfare to provide the survivor with counselling and psychosocial support to assist in her recovery.

The Upper West Regional Police Command commended the investigators and prosecutor for their professionalism and commitment, noting that their efforts were instrumental in securing the conviction.
