A man accused of raping his daughter for five years was released into freedom after two years of proceeding with the case.
Esau
Musau was acquitted under section 210 of the CPC Act on the basis of
weak prosecution .The case was pending since it began at Makadara
courts in the year 2010.
Prosecution stated that he had raped his biological daughter
forcing her into an abortion after impregnating her when she was a
Standard six student in the year 2007.
When the minor turned 17
years in the year 2010, he was charged for sexually abusing his daughter
for an offense that began in the year 2007.
He allegedley violated his 17 year old daughter, while using a Kitchen Knife at their home in Huruma Ngei.
Esau appeared before Resident Magistrate W.Ngumi who read aloud the facts in court to his jubilation of being set free.
Early this year his daughter attacked her outside the Makadara court
and fainted minutes later. She was responding to court proceedings that
deemed her to be a liar as portrayed by her father and his
representative in court.
On January 4th, the minor represented herself in court said it was it
was misleading and ingenuine for defense to think that a child would
seat down and create such a deep and embarrassing story.
She later attacked her father outside the same court after he confronted her with provocation.
At 19 years old today, the Victim continues to move from school
to school with differnet name identitites while seeking counseling over
the trauma.
According to the Volunteer Childs Officer John Mbugua
the girl is a very intelligent person who scores greatlty both
academically and sports. In a press interview he says "We had to
transfer her from schools and change names to secure her identity and
saftey."
According to the court, prosecution failed to produce enough evidence
to convict the victims father. Her presence in court to frequently
testify against the father was limited due to school and studies.
