Two police officers, named in the report as Nicholas Njagi and James Mutabari, have been arrested over an allegation involving a three-year-old girl at Kinjo in Meru County. They have not been tried or convicted, and the allegations against them remain to be tested in court.
According to the report, the case began when the girl's mother noticed that her child was distressed and took her to the Nairobi Women's Hospital branch in Meru town. A medical examination there reportedly pointed to sexual assault. The mother then reported the matter at Kariene police station.
DCI officers took over the case and arrested the two officers, who are being held in the cells. The report says detectives collected two sheets from the officers' units as evidence, and that two child witnesses, aged 7 and 12, told investigators what they saw. The officers are expected to be arraigned.
What the report cannot yet tell readers is how the case will develop. It does not say when the arrests were made, what charges will be filed, or whether the officers have responded through a lawyer or the police service.
