Paul Murithi and Nicholas Mwirigi
Two horny teachers have been arraigned before a court after they allegedly r*ped a 9-year-old pupil repeatedly.
According to information revealed by Kenyans, Nicholas Mwirigi Mithika and Paul Murithi Njeru of Little Angels Academy in Isiolo were arrested on Tuesday after being identified by the minor.
It is alleged that the two who appeared before Isiolo Resident Magistrate Joan Irura in a packed courtroom, had on numerous occasion brutally r*ped the girl since the beginning of the month.
The prosecution counsel revealed that the suspects used to drug the victim making her lose consciousness before engaging in indecent acts with the minor.
“You intentionally administered a substance with intent to stupefy her before engaging in sex with her,” read the charge sheet.
The girl submitted that she would faint whenever the teachers called her and on regaining consciousness, she would find herself naked.
She narrated that the young teachers used to summon her in the evening as other pupils went home after which they would commit the offence. The girl's father divulged that her daughter was found at an unknown location having been drugged and defiled, with the same being confirmed by medical reports.
In a tense courtroom full of pupils and parents, Senior Prosecution Counsel Jalson Makori, requested that the suspects be denied bail to allow further investigations and also for fear that the accused would interfere with the probe, a plea that was granted.
“Taking into consideration that there is tension, which even has been seen in court today, the safety of the accused is not guaranteed. For that reason, the court treats the reasons raised as compelling ones,” ruled Magistrate Irura.
The teachers escaped death on Tuesday after police rescued them from a furious mob that was baying for their blood.
The incident took place in Kenya.
