Third arrest completes abuse case in Uitvlugt
Uitvlugt police arrested a 17-year-old boy on Monday, 9 November 2026 in an investigation into the alleged sexual abuse of two 15-year-old girls, reported Waterkant. Two other suspects, both 20 years old, had already been detained earlier. All three are now in custody, according to the Suriname Police Corps.
The case came to light on 14 October 2026 following a report that two minor girls were together with three boys at an address in the Uitvlugt district and were possibly sexually abused there.
Officers went to the specified address and brought the girls to the police station. In their statements, the girls said the three boys had sexually abused them or engaged in indecent conduct with them.
The two 20-year-old suspects were arrested on the day of the report. The 17-year-old was located more than three weeks later. All three were brought before a court and, after consultation with the Surinamese Public Prosecution Service, were remanded in custody.
The further investigation has been transferred to the Youth Affairs department.
