Thus, the accused is said to have taken the older girl to his bedroom, where he defiled her. After the ordeal, she was threatened by the accused as she tried to scream and escape through the window before going to her sister and started touching her private parts.
Meanwhile, the girl saw a teacher passing and alerted her, and when she arrived, she alerted the school head and the accused was arrested, and the two minors were escorted to Kimana police station then later to Loitoktok Sub County Hospital for medical examination.
