WATCHMAN IN CUSTODY FOR DEFILING MINOR

A watchman denied two different counts of sexually violating a nine year old girl during school holidays.

Benard Njogu ,25, denied raping and indecently touching the minors body parts on August 31st last month.

He allegedly gagged the girl,tied and strapped her arms to the back of her body at about 7pm as she sat outside their house in Sunton estate, Kasarani.

She had not suspected his intention when he volunteered to keep her company outside their house on that night.

Consequently, the offense occurred in a series of hours from around 7 pm when he dragged her to the back of a dark building that was under construction.

Three months after the incident , he was arrested and identified as the guard of the unfinished building where the offence took place.

He was charged for intentional defilement and indecent touching before a Makadara court.

Medical reports established the minor was sexually abused and is yet to face therapy sessions.

The suspect remains in custody after failing to secure a heavy bond of over sh 100,000.

If found guilty he will serve more than 20 years imprisonment .

The case will be heared on 19th  February next year.
