A ten-year-old girl was raped at her home last month and spent two days at the San Fernando General Hospital.
Police said the incident happened at a house in southwest Trinidad last month. Since then, the suspect, who is a Venezuelan, has been dodging them.
The 33-year-old man, originally from Tucupita, locked the child in a room and sexually assaulted her. She was first examined at a district health facility, and staff transferred her to the hospital for additional treatment.
The family moved house, but Newsday learned that the man recently showed up at the new location.
A report was made to two police stations, but the man is still on the run.
