The assault came to light after the victim’s grandmother found visible injuries on her nether regions. It is then that she reported the matter to the police.
In mitigation, the house help accepted wrongdoing but pleaded for leniency on grounds that she has a young one who solely depends on her for upkeep. She also promised not to repeat the same offence in the future.
The baby was taken to Borabu Sub County Hospital where the attending physician established that she had indeed been sexually assaulted.
Those in court were shocked by Bosire’s demeanor as she did not appear remorseful.
