Horror rape case as girl, 10, pregnant 'after stepfather attacked her while mum was at work'

The horrific details emerged after the child started complaining of a tummy ache, which prompted the concerned mum to take her daughter to the Son Llatzer Hospital in Palm, Majorca

A stepfather has been arrested after a 10-year-old girl was allegedly raped while her mum was at work, according to police.

The horrific details emerged after the child started complaining of a tummy ache, which prompted the concerned mum to take her daughter to the Son Llatzer Hospital in Palma, Majorca. Upon examination, doctors discovered several bruises and injuries before learning that she was also several weeks pregnant.

She was transferred to Son Espases hospital and underwent surgery due to the severity of her injuries, according to local media reports. Her mum told medics that the only person that had looked after the girl was her current boyfriend.

Cops arrested the 35-year-old man on Wednesday and he appeared in court on Wednesday. He allegedly told a judge: "I am very sorry for what I have done, but it was only once". Local reports said the minor had allegedly told police the stepfather had abused her over the course of a month.

It comes after a pervert who castrated men in his apartment after they contacted him to fulfil their extreme sexual fantasies has been jailed for almost four years. The 75-year-old man, known only as Gerhard T due to local privacy laws, performed brutal penis, testicle and even toe castrations on his kitchen table for willing victims who shared the same sexual fetish. Some participants even drove hundreds of miles to visit his "surgery".

The court heard that the accused wasn't a medic and instead worked as a fitter in the metalwork industry, installing machinery, engine parts and other equipment. On Tuesday, he was sentenced to three years and 10 months in jail at Erfurt District Court, Thuringia State, Germany. This is despite all of his victims willingly taking part in the brutal procedures.

Judge Udo Tietjen said the jail term was justified despite his patients agreeing to the surgeries. He said: "It was an extraordinary trial, it was also a trial tainted with shame." Gerhard T was found guilty of seven counts of grievous bodily harm and one of bodily harm after charging up to EUR 2,000 (£1,674) to perform the illegal procedures. According to reports, the defendant found his patients online, usually after they asked him to fulfil their extreme sexual kinks.

The 75-year-old reportedly carried out the surgeries on his kitchen and sofa at his home in Erfurt, Germany. Between 2015 and 2019, he castrated eight men, but was only caught when one victim turned to an online advice forum for help after being badly butchered.
