Sεx Worker Jailed For Bedding Boy (15)
A commercial sεx worker was recently sentenced to six months in prison for engaging in intimate relations with a 15-year-old boy.
Mercy Chisiyo (20) of Lion’s Den, Chinhoyi was lucky, however, after Chinhoyi Magistrate Lisa Mutendereki decided to commute the sentence to 210 hours of community service.
The complainant in the matter was a male minor aged 15 from Shackleton suburb, Chinhoyi.
State case, led by prosecutor Tafadzwa Knight Rwodzi, was that on June 23 this year, the complainant proceeded to Mukanya Bar situated at Murereka, Lion’s Den intending to attend a musical show.
While at the joint, he met Chisiyo, who was milling around soliciting for clients and the two agreed to have a sεx romp for a US$5 fee.
Following negotiations, the boy surrendered his Huawei cellphone promising that he would get it the following day upon paying the US$5 he owed.
The accused person took the complainant to her room at Murereka, where they had protected sεx.
On June 25, 2023, the boy approached the hooker and paid the outstanding money, but she refused to give him back the gadget which led the complainant to make a police report.
It was at the police station that it was discovered the accused person had violated the law by having sεxual intercourse with a young person below 16 years of age.
Court ruled Chisiyo acted unlawfully.
