140 Years For Gichira

 

A man who sexually abused and impregnated his two underage daughters was Thursday jailed 140 years by a Baricho Court in Kirinyaga, according to online reports.

The prosecutor, Patricia Gikunju, told the court that the girls were abused and one of them gave birth to a baby girl who is now seven months old.

Akorino 'pastor' John Gichira Gichini, age 51 was sentenced after being convicted of the charges against him.

The accused told the court that between June 2019 and August 2020 he sexually abused his daughters aged 14 and 16 years.

 During the sentencing, Senior Principal Magistrate Anthony Mwicigi said the pastor destroyed the lives of his daughters and that he deserves heavy punishment to serve as deterrent to other would-be offenders.

The magistrate described the convict as a very bad person whose name should be entered into the register of convicted and most dangerous sex offenders.

However, Gichini in his defense, told the court that he was misled by the devil and sought for forgiveness by his daughters and the court. "The devil reigning on earth and making people to sin.", he said. "I sinned, but I'm remorseful and I will be very happy if pardoned. It was my first time to commit such a crime in my life"

Quoting the Bible, Mr. Mwicigi said the convict is a wicked man whose days are numbered.

Reports have it that relatives said the Gichini had warned his daughters of dire consequences if they reported him.

The convict had been on the run since last December but was flushed out of his hideout in Mbeere South on Sunday and taken to Sagana police station.
