a 12-year-old girl pregnant in Belfast.
The schoolgirl allegedly got pregnant after
having sx with a 19-year-old man.
If she carries to full-term, the young girl - whose
family are said to be in shock - could become
one of Britain's youngest mothers.
Police confirmed that the 19-year-old was
arrested last Thursday after the pregnancy was
reported to police and has been released on bail,
pending further inquiries.
If it is found that he had s*x with the girl, he
faces being charged with r*pe, which can carry a
life sentence if he gets convicted.
According to UK law, anyone aged under 13 is
not legally considered to be able to give consent
to s*x, so those who engage in s*xual activity with
them face a charge of statutory rape.
A Police spokesman said:
'Police arrested a 19 year old man in the West
Belfast area on Thursday 1st October in relation
to a s*xual offence. The man has been released
on police bail pending further enquiries.'

The girl who is believed to be UK's youngest
mother gave birth last April after getting pregnant
by her 19-year-old boyfriend while she was still
in primary school.
The 11 year old girl and the baby’s father were
said to be ‘totally in love’ and had been going
out for a year when she got pregnant.
She then gave birth at 12 years and three months,
making her five months younger than Britain's
previous youngest mother.
The youngest father on record is Sean Stewart,
of Bedford, who became a father aged 12 in 1998.
