Former Kalaki head teacher faces sodomy charges
The territorial police of the East Kyoga region have preferred a case of sodomy against the former head teacher of Vikings High School, Marcel Domniano Adunya.
Adunya was arrested on Monday by police at his residence in Kengere Ward, Soroti City East Division in Soroti City.
A case of sodomy was opened against him at Otuboi Police station under CRR047/2022 of Otuboi Police Station Kalaki District by the parents of the victims.
While addressing the press on Tuesday, the East Kyoga regional policeperson SP Gregory Ageca, said the suspect [Adunya] was arrested with four students of Vikings High School who had reportedly gone to his home for a holiday programme.
According to Ageca, Adunya is currently being detained at East Kyoga regional police headquarters.
He said that Adunya is being accused for allegedly sodomising several young boys during his term of service as the head teacher Vikings High School.
“The complainants allege that the suspect while working as the school head teacher sodomised several students,” said SP Ageca.
He stated that the police is looking into the case, adding that his victims have already been taken in to the hospital for checkups and there is no proof that they were sodomised.
“We have subjected the four students to medical examination but upon medical examination there is no proof to certify that they were sodomised by the suspect [Adunya].
However, Ageca maintained the suspect is currently detained at Soroti Central Police station and “will be charged accordingly after police investigation.”
According to sources within the school, the suspect has allegedly shamelessly been sodomising the boys and threatening to kill them should they report him.
“In 1st term of 2022, I got reports of Adunya allegedly sodomising students but according to sources this begun started in 2021, the Deputy Head Teacher Vikings High School Nicholas Odulai,” said.
Odulai explained that the reports were coming from both the students and parents of the school.
He said some parents mentioned their sons were having difficulties in passing out urine, blaming it on Adunya who allegedly sodomised the boys.
The Watchman of Vikings High School Charles Ewou also noted that he had received several reports from students who had alleged that Adunya had tried to lure them into sexual intercourse.
He said that some students claimed that the head teacher promised to offer gifts and pay school fees to male students who could accept to participate in the alleged act.
Efforts to get a comment from the suspect [Adunya] were futile by press time as he was under police cells.
This is not the first time Adunya is being accused of allegedly molesting male students. In 2016, a mother of a- 17- year- old student of Halcyon High School reported a case of alleged sodomy against Adunya.
However, Adunya denied the allegations of sodomising students, and the case of sodomy against him was dismissed.
Sarah Achen, a resident of Kengere ward in Soroti City East wants Adunya punished for allegedly molesting male students.
She alleges that he [Adunya] is a serial molester and wonders why the police always release him, whenever he is arrested for sodomising students.
The news poses a new challenge for the parents who have always guarded their girl children with the belief that their male counterparts are safer.
The Kalaki district LCV chairperson Samuel Okello condemned the alleged Adunya’s act and described it as” highly regrettable.”
He appealed to parents to always try to cultivate free speech with their children to ensure early detection of such voices should they be molested by anyone.
