Reading the brief fact to the court presided over by His Worship Justice Augustine Fiifi Donful, ASP J. A. Kwarkye said Ernest Donkor, 28, is a Physics teacher and Augustine Swanzy Oduro, 34, a History teacher at the school.

The victims, 15 and 16, (name withheld) are first-year students at the same school.

The complainant, Daniel Quayson Junior, according to the prosecutor, is the Assistant Headmaster at Asankrangwa Senior High School.

On Thursday, July 14, during the Amenfi West Municipal Inter-School competition held at the Asankrangwa Senior High School, the two suspects took the victims out of the school premises and bought new dresses for them to wear to be able to take them out to celebrate one of the victims’ birthday.

About 2:00 pm on the same day, the suspects booked a hotel at Wassa Dunkwa near Asankrangwa.

The two suspects bought a Malta Guinness drink for the victims.

Suspect Ernest Donkor took the 16-year-old victim to a room at the hotel in a quest to have a conversation with her, whilst suspect Augustine Swanzy Oduro also took the 15-year-old victim to another room at the hotel in the quest to have a conversation with her.

The 16-year-old victim in the course of the conversation excused herself to visit the washroom and left her Malta Guinness drink with suspect Ernest Donkor in the room.

The victim returned from the washroom and after drinking the Malta Guinness drink, fell dizzy and went blackout.

She regained her consciousness later and found herself on the bed naked with blood stains in between her thighs.

Suspect Augustine Swanzy Oduro while in the room made sexual body contacts with the 15-year-old victim by fondling her breasts and touching her buttocks.

The victim managed to run out of the room and later the two suspects brought the two victims back to the school campus.

On their way to the campus, suspect Ernest Donkor promised to buy iPhone 7plus, pizza and food for the 16-year-old victim and warned them not to tell anyone about what happened at the hotel.
