A police officer suspected of defiling a form one student while in custody remains at large
The officer from Kakamega County’s Khwisero Sub County police station is accused of defiling a 16-year-old Form One student while in detention.
According to reports, the girl and her friend who accompanied her to meet her boyfriend were detained on April 28, 2023.
As a kind of punishment, her parents demanded that she be arrested and held in detention.
However, the officer allegedly went to the room where the girls were being held and asked the victim to follow him to another room, where he ordered her to undress. The cop is accused of repeatedly defiling the teenager.
The cop, according to Ms Vivian Ayuma, the county’s director of social services, children’s services, culture and gender, has not yet been arrested.
“This is a very sad situation that has been swept under the carpet.” We are requesting a complete inquiry into this tragic incident. “We need the officer to be charged for inflicting such pain on the girl and ruining her life,” Ms Ayuma said.
