Residents at Bukembe village, Bukembe East ward, Kanduyi
constituency Bungoma County have been left in suspense after a middle-aged
woman helped her son in defiling her step-daughter.
The defiled minor is a student at Nakuru high school who says
that she was enticed by her step-brother who later raped her.
The minor told Opera news that she was forced to have play
sex with his step-brother who impregnated her.
"My brother called me in his house after which he locked
the door and ordered my pants down," she said, adding that he threatened
her if she could reveal to anyone.
She says the day the act happened her step-mother was around
but she couldn't bother to request from her son what was happening by then.
"After the act I decided to go back to my mother's home
to explain what had happened after which I was taken to Bungoma refferal
Hospital and tested for pregnancy unfortunately it was discovered that I was
carrying 7 weeks pregnancy," she said.
She added that her step-brother has been threatening her,
"this thing was a deal with his mother to destroy my future," she
said.
Speaking to the press on August, 04, 2020, at Bingo police
station Martin Wanyonyi chairman for human rights Bungoma condemned the act
saying that the suspect should be arrested, arraigned in court and judged
heavily.
"I want to take this opportunity and warn the suspect to
stop threaning this girl together with her mother am going to ensure that that
notorious boy is arrested and arraigned," he said.
He condemned the father to the suspect for hiding that case
saying that his son didn't involve the rape case.
"This man is a senior employ in this county in the
revenue offices I wonder how he can partiner with his son to do this," he
said, accusing greedy men who are messing up with young girls that if spotted
should be castrated.
He blamed parents who are taking bribes from stupid men after
they have defiled minors.
John Khaoya called on chiefs to work closely with parents to
ensure security among minors when many people are desperate.
He called on chiefs to report any defilement cases for
immediate action.
"Let's stop this thing of solving cases at home after
some people bribe others if somebody is found with a defilement case should be
exposed," he said.
Everlyne Wafula the mother to the victim pleaded with Bungoma
law courts to help her get justice.
"My husband disappeared with all children leaving me in
a desperate situation who went and got married to a widow in town now after he
brought unnecessary complications in our marriage," she said.
She said that her life is now in danger after being threatened
by the suspect.
" I have not received justice because the suspect has already
been released," she said.
