Police detains a 12-year-old boy over sodomizing five Class mates

Police in Kenya is holding a 12-year-old boy in custody over allegations of sodomizing fellow five classmates aged 9 and 10 years.

According to our Kenyan sources, this controversial minor was arraigned in a Nanyuki court last week, where he appeared before resident Magistrate identified as Damacline Bosibori on allegations that on diverse dates between June 16 and July 23 this year at Ruai village in Laikipia County, he sodomized five standard three boys.

The accused was preying on the minors while they were playing in the field at lunch hour. The boy used to get hold of the minors while playing in the field and dragged them to a nearby bush, where he threatened to gorge out their eyes or kill them if they failed to either cooperate before sodomizing them or attempt to report.

His forty days run out dramatically after one of the boys reported to the teacher who later reported to Nanyuki Police Station, leading to his arrest.

However, the accused denied the allegations before the court directed he be taken to a Hospital for age assessment alongside being assigned an advocate by the Pro Bono committee before he is produced in court for the next hearing.
