On September 24, 2019, a man from Kuresoi South in Nakuru County was sentenced to life in prison for defiling his 6-year-old biological sister.

Wesley Langat, a resident of Bararget Village, appeared before Molo Resident Magistrate Emmanuel Soita and pleaded guilty to repeatedly defiling the minor.

According to K24 TV, Langat even smiled at the Magistrate after being sentenced.

The court heard that Langat's neighbour spotted the girl walking abnormally while playing with her age-mates on September 21, 2019, and upon interrogation, she disclosed that her brother had sexually abused her.

Langat was arrested and charged on the same day, and his admission to the offences resulted in a life sentence.
