-

A man reportedly threatened to spread nude pictures of a 17-year-old girl on Facebook. The victim has already filed a complained at the police. She told the police that the suspect is her brother-in-law and that he has had sex with her several times. He had threatened to spread nude pictures of her, if she refused to have sex with him. The girl explained to the police that she moved in with her sister three years ago so that she could go to school in Paramaribo. She pointed out that her brotherin-law treated her good in the beginning and that he did not behave strangely. About two years ago he bought a mobile phone for her even though she had not asked him to do that. An acquaintan­ce of hers recently visited her when her brother-in-law was at home. He disapprove­d of the visit and sent her a message via Whatsapp, telling her that he would tell her brothers and sisters that she was getting involved with many boys. Shortly afterwards he sent another message, telling her that he wanted to have intercours­e with her. If she refused, he would tell her sister everything and she would be send back to her parents in the hinterland. The girl agreed to give him what he wanted because she did not want to go back to the hinterland. She allowed her brother-in-law to enter her bedroom and have his way with her. After they had had intercours­e, he started snooping in her mobile phone and found naked pictures which she had sent to her boyfriend. He then instructed her to also send them to his phone which she did. Once he had the pictures he threatened to upload them and spread them on Facebook if she refused to have sex with him. The man always had sex with her when they were alone in the house. When there were children in the house, he sent them to the store. The girl does not know how many times they have had sex. She eventually told a cousin everything because the sexual abuse became unbearable. The cousin then convinced her to notify the police.
