BUNGOMA PARENTS SEARCHING FOR JUSTICE OVER DEFILEMENT OF THEIR DAUGHTER

family in Bungoma South wants a teacher immediately arrested for allegedly defiling their 14 year-old daughter in August 2015.
They accused teacher Paul Wafula of committing the offence at Namwacha market after luring the girl while she headed to school at about 7am.
The girl's father explained that she was limping when returned home from Gamba Primary School one evening. He said she only revealed what had happened when her mother inquired.
The teacher allegedly seduced the girl into sleeping with him and threatened her with death if she reported him to anyone.
The family from Namwacha village told journalists in Bungoma town that their efforts to have the teacher arrested and punished have been unsuccessful.
The girl's father said on Thursday that the matter was reported at Namwacha AP post but that no action has been taken against the teacher.
"I reported the incident immediately after it happened, OB number 26/28/7/15, but maybe police have colluded with the teacher who ruined my daughter's life," he said.
The man said his daughter has not returned to school since the attack.
The girl's parents appealed for help from relevant authorities, saying doctors at Bungoma County Referral Hospital confirmed she was defiled.
