International airline bigwig charged in court for raping Kenyan cousin
A middle-aged woman was physically and sexually assaulted by her cousin on July 11, 2020, after they had a few drinks together. The woman, who was playing golf at a club in Kiambu County, was assaulted after she bumped into her cousin. The cousin insisted that they catch up over a few drinks before the government-imposed 7pm curfew.
The woman reported the assault to the police, who arrested her cousin. The man is a senior manager at an international airline and has worked for the company for over 35 years. He is currently out on bail and is due to appear in court on May 4, 2023.
The woman’s lawyer, Mr. John Njoroge, said that his client is seeking justice and that she hopes that the court will deliver a just verdict. He also said that the woman is traumatized by the assault and that she is receiving counselling.
The case has sparked outrage in Kenya, with many people calling for the man to be punished for his crime. The assault has also raised concerns about the safety of women in Kenya.
The woman’s case is a reminder that sexual assault can happen to anyone, regardless of their age, race, or social status. It is important to remember that sexual assault is never the victim’s fault and that there is help available for those who have been assaulted.
