HRANA News Agency – A cab driver has sexually assaulted a six-year-old girl multiple times. Last year, a cab driver who was hired to take three little girls to school every day began abusing one of the children sexually after awhile.
According to a report by Iranian Students News Agency (ISNA), the driver owns a Ford Festiva, is visually impaired in one eye and had taken the girl to an abandoned building near the school. The mother of the child says that she has no hope of recovery for her daughter. “It has been years since my daughter has been potty trained, but she is having accidents now because of what has happened to her,” the mother says.
The mother has also reported that the cab driver assaulted her daughter for weeks by taking her to the abandoned building under false pretenses of wanting to play games. “My children say the driver has a yellow knife that he keeps under his seat,” the mother adds while crying. “He has threatened my kids. When two of them weren’t there, he abused my daughter, Freshteh. He threatened to cut her parent’s heads off if she didn’t keep quiet.”
“Freshteh is now undergoing psychiatric therapy and has been taking sedatives. She is easily agitated and even fears her father and brothers,” the mother says.
