Note leads villagers to childs defiled body

By Chrispine Otieno

The body of Class Three girl in South Mugirango was found dumped in a bush after she was allegedly defiled and murdered.

The nine-year-old was discovered less than a kilometer from their home in Chitago Village after residents stumbled on a handwritten note along the road.

The note had details of the location of the body and the names of the alleged killers. It also described how the suspects had been apparently paid Ksh. 100,000 to either kill the girl or the father.

One of the suspects, Nyabuto Omenyi, was not lucky as irate villagers turned their anger on him and hacked him to death.

Police officers from Mugirango arrived at the scene but it was to late to save him from the residents who demanded for justice. A house belonging to yet another named suspect was also set ablaze.

According to the girl’s father, Isiah Nyangweso, she was reported missing after she failed to return home on Monday evening. He said she had been sent to collect milk from her aunt’s home a few meters away.

Kisii County Commander Hassan Abdi said they have launched investigations into the incident.
