The Appellant was charged with and convicted of rape of a 3-year-old child by the District Court of Mwanga. He was sentenced accordingly. His appeal to the High Court was dismissed. The Appellant further appealed to the Court of Appeal contending that the prosecution failed to prove that the victim was actually raped and that the courts below erred in basing conviction on his cautioned statement which was not voluntarily made. He also complained that he was not informed of his right to require the person who made the report to be summoned in court so that he could be examined with regard to his report.
