Speaking to Tuko.co.ke, Peter Ngetich, a village elder at Chepkinoiyo village, said that the Grade 3 girl had gone to a nearby church for a youth camp, where she arrived late at home.

He said that when the girl reached home, her mother questioned her why she came home late, yet she was supposed to have arrived earlier to help with the domestic chores as the firstborn.

“She tied the girl with ropes and started to whip her before using a hot knife to inflict injuries in her body. The girl told us that she even bit her back and continued the punishment until 1am when they untied her,” he said. How Senator Cheruiyot rescued molested Grade 3 girl Ngetich said that the mother, together with her husband, executed the heinous act on the innocent girl for over four hours on that Sunday.

He said that the mother, who worked in a nearby saloon, would lock her up in the house without food and head to work, and for two days, the girl suffered immensely before a woman who was passing by heard her call for help.

Following the arrest of the woman, several leaders extended their support to the girl and her younger siblings to cope with the situation.

Senate Majority Leader Aaron Cheruiyot and area MP Alfred Mutai teamed up to dispatch food and monetary support to assist the children with essential needs, as well as secure a children’s home for the eldest one.
