The uncle of the little girl, along with two other persons, is facing a charge of human trafficking in persons.

The trial involving a mentally disabled 13-year-old girl, who was allegedly trafficked and forced into a marriage with an elderly man, was postponed in the Port Elizabeth High Court on Monday.

Following the death of the girl’s mother when she was just nine years old, she went to live with her uncle in KwaDukuza, Kwa-Zulu-Natal, in 2012. According to the indictment, the following year, the 61-year-old man from Greenbushes in Port Elizabeth entered into lobola negotiations with the girl’s uncle and in November 2016 the victim was told she would not return to school and would be married to the elderly man.

Court documents cite that when the teenager resisted the man’s advances he strangled her and forcefully had sex with her. The woman then took the girl back to Bizana where she stayed in her “husband’s” new house and had to live and work as the elderly woman’s daughter-in-law.
