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.
