The victim is Janet Amoakwah.
Prosecution said the accused person and the victim reside at Ablekuma, where they are tenants within the same compound.
On January 25, 2016 at about 1800 hours, Queenie sent the victim’s younger sister, a witness in the case to go and call the victim which the witness obliged.
Detective Inspector Asante said when the victim arrived Queenie offered her a Vodka beer and other varieties of drinks after which the victim got intoxicated. Queenie then lured her into her bedroom.
The prosecution said Queenie asked other witnesses around to leave and she locked her bedroom.
Detective Inspector Asante said a 13 year old who is a witness went to peep through the window of the accused and saw Queenie inserting the artificial penis into the victim’s vagina.
The witness informed the victim’s brother known as Nana Sasu and he also alerted her mother (the complainant).
The Prosecution said the witnesses rushed to the aid of the victim and saw her lying naked in the accused person’s bedroom with vomit all over her.
Prosecution said as the victim was unconscious she was rushed to the hospital after obtaining a medical report form from the Police Station.
The Police proceeded to the scene and apprehended Queenie and a search in her room revealed an empty container of Vodka, Star Beer bottles, and bottles of Orijin alcoholic beverages.
According to the prosecutor, the artificial penis was found on top of the accused person’s wardrobe and a video recording of the act was on Queenie’s “Infinix@ mobile phone.
Prosecution said Queenie in her caution statement to the Police admitted the offence.
