Published on September 23, 2019, a disturbing incident unfolded in Kakamega Central District, where a 45-year-old mother found herself at the receiving end of her son's alleged attempt to rape her.
The accused, identified as AMM, allegedly tried to rape his mother on the morning of September 17. However, the mother's screams for help attracted the attention of her daughter and other neighbours, who came to her rescue.
AMM was subsequently arrested by community policing personnel and taken to Isulu Patrol Base awaiting prosecution. He denied the charges of attempted rape and an alternative count of committing indecent acts with an adult.
He was granted a Sh100,000 bond with a surety of similar amount or an alternative cash bail of Sh50,000 cash bail. The matter will be mentioned on October 3 and heard on November 4.
