 Kimaiyo stated that other reports indicate that the statue, which had been on the church altar, had gone stolen.

“Upon reviewing the CCTV footage, it was established that a stranger who was dressed in a black and white striped shirt and black trousers entered the church hall when a few congregants were deep in prayer,” Kimaiyo added.

The suspect then claims to have moved to the top gallery, where he concealed the statue. He would next descend to the altar, where he selected the statue.

“He then defecated on the statue before exiting the church. He hid the defaced statue underneath the pews,” police noted.

 Attempts to locate the culprit are underway.
