A shameless 34-year-old woman, and a mother of five kids, has been arraigned in court and handed the penalty of eight years in jail for allegedly defiling a 13-year-old, Class 7 boy repeatedly for 8 months.
According to media reports, Wanjiru Kamau (not the real name), was arraigned before the senior Principal Magistrate in Milimani law court and charged with committing an indecent act with the boy and displaying indecent material to the minor, when her mother was away from home.
The Chief Principal Magistrate madam Esther Kimilu in her statements in court said she convicted the accused on two counts of sexually abusing the boy and introducing him to indecent videos.
“I have considered the appellant’s application and the judgment by the lower court, and I uphold the conviction and the sentence of the lower court. What the appellant did was traumatic to the young child and her appeal is hereby dismissed,” she said.
The court also heard that the alleged woman who served as a house help would order the boy to watch indecent videos from her smartphone, which she download phone gallery.
The minor’s mother knew about the matter upon returning from a journey where she had gone, when her child went to the bedroom of the house help and produced the DVD containing indecent videos and told his mother about the matter.
The DVD, which the child produced to his mother, was played in court and showed adults having an indecent act with the minor.
In her defense, the house help told the court that they have been having issues with her employer who she told the court had been accusing her of having an extramarital affair with her husband, saying the charges were fabricated to fix her.
The court heard that the suspect allegedly abused the minor boy between the month of July and February, at the height of Covid-19, when the government imposed restrictions on movement.
“The effect of the action by the adult woman has psychologically affected the minor, who now cannot live without satisfying his thirst for companion with the opposite sex,” the magistrate noted.
