As the country grapples with rising teenage pregnancies, police in Kisii have arrested 38 teenagers who were caught engaging in group sex while intoxicated.
According to Kisii Police Commander Jebel Munene, the police moved in swiftly and busted the teenagers who had defied social distancing directives in the wake of Covid-19.
Confirming the incident, Munene said that 14 used condoms were recovered from the teenagers, all aged between 14 and 20 years.
The group comprised of four girls and 34 boys, and they were found with illicit liquor at the sex party.
As a precautionary measure, all 38 are set to undergo mandatory quarantine pending the conclusion of Covid-19 tests.
This comes in the wake of rising number of teenage pregnancies across the country, with Machakos County alone recording at least 4,000 teenage pregnancies during this period.
