A woman identified as Scovia Muyekho is in trouble after giving a host slap to a neighbor. Appearing before Kibera Law Courts, it is said the woman slapped a young boy she found sitting outside her house to a point of loosening his teeth.
This was after she mistakenly accused him of throwing stones at her house. Evidence presented in court stated that, she willfully attacked the boy on September 27 and caused him bodily harm at a residential area in Lindi, Kibera Sub-county.
On the fateful day, the minor was sitting outside on the stone while his mother was away running her daily errands. There were also some children playing and throwing stones onto Muyekho’s house.
Infuriated by this behavior, she came outside to warn them but they had ran away. Since the victim was the only one found sitting outside, she bitterly accused him of something the boy didn’t do.
The bitter woman went back to her house only to come back and approach the minor from behind and gave him hot slaps that sent him sprawling on the ground. The boy ran to their home crying in pain, his two teeth had loosened as a result of the impact.
The mother came home later, found her son not feeling well. The boy narrated to his mother what had transpired. He experienced difficulties in eating and six days later, his uncle took him to the hospital where the loose teeth were removed.
On third October, the boy’s mother escorted him to Kibera Police Station to record a statement. The woman was arrested and charged before Kibera Principle Magistrate Sharon Maroro.
The accused denied the claims saying that the complainant had agreed to withdraw the matter but the Principle Magistrate could not approve withdrawal because the victim is a minor.
Muyekho was released on cash bail of Ksh 10,000 and the next mentioning will be on October 25.
