KENYA – Kenyan Police in Baricho trading centre, Kirinyaga County, have arrested a senior teacher at a local high school for allegedly sodomising a car wash attendant before dumping his body near a river.
The local media gathered that Mr William Kinyua, according to police officers, took the car wash attendant to a joint where he bought him alcohol and carried him to his car, where he sexually abused the man.
To that effect, Mr Moses Koskei, the Kirinyaga West Sub-County police boss, said that investigations had started.
“The victim is mentally ill and was lured by the suspect after washing his car. He usually washes cars in Baricho Town, and it is then that he asked that he joins him for a drink,” Mr Koskei told the media on Thursday, April 6, 2023.
The police boss then said they both left Baricho Town for Sagana where they had the drinks.
The victim, in his statement to the police said he thought the teacher had appreciated his efforts by taking him out.

After committing the act, the officer said the teacher went ahead and dumped the man near River Sagana.
While there, a group of women found the naked man and saved him from the pain and ordeal he had undergone.
The whole issue is now a matter of concern, with parents questioning the teacher’s character since he is a boarding master at a boy’s school.
The school’s principal has already been forced to state the matter, saying the teacher has never been reported to have engaged in such acts within the institution.
In a statement seen by Nairobi News, shared on WhatsApp, the principal confirmed that the teacher had been arrested over the a similar matter.
