The three, whose names have not yet been disclosed, were arrested early this week from their residence in Cyarwa Cell, Tumba Sector, Huye District.<\/p>\n

RIB got the information from the neighbors, the executive administration, and the night watchmen who claimed that the men have sex with teens under 16.<\/p>\n

Both suspects are aged 22, from Bugesera and Nyagatare districts respectively.
\nThe executive officer of Tumba Sector, Migabo Vital, said that they also arrested a woman suspected of being a pimp and sex trafficker.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe got information about three girls under 16 who are said to have had sex with two men who study at IPRC-Huye. We arrested them and handed them over to RIB. There is also a woman who was arrested for allegedly involving the girls into the sex trade.
\nShe is also well known for being a sex worker. She had employed one of the girls as a house girl to take care of her child but with a hidden objective of trading her off in sex work.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some people from Cyarwa Cell have however said that the girls in question are known sex workers in the area. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I can say is that the boys are innocent because the girls were prostitutes even before. They are known in Butare Town. The girls are prostitutes. They always frequent pubs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Huye District is one of the districts with a lot of early pregnancies among teens under 18. In 2018, the district registered 338 which shot up to 669 early pregnancies. <\/p>\n

The Southern Province police spokesperson, CIP Twajamahoro Sylvestre has said that both men are in custody of RIB, Ngoma Sector as investigations get underway. <\/p>\n

CIP Twajamahoro said more people involved in sex trafficking are being investigated.<\/p>\n
