The trial of the 60-year-old man who allegedly raped his 2-year-old granddaughter has started before High Court Judge, Justice Thushara Rajasinghe.
While opening the case, the state told the court that the girl was 1 year 11 months old when the incident took place.
The incident happened between 1st February and 20th March this year in a settlement in Naitasiri.
The prosecution told the court that the accused took advantage of the girl's vulnerability.
The court is having a closed session because the child is giving evidence.
