A police officer suspected of raping a minor inside police cells in Murang’a has been arrested.
The officer is suspected to have defiled the 14-year-old at the Murang’a Police Station, and threw a condom he had used to the roof of the station’s toilets.
An inmate who witnessed the officer clean himself and throw the latex took his frustration to social media, prompting the authorities to investigate the matter.
On Sunday, the station OCS Job Njiru ordered investigations into the matter, leading the officer’s arrest.
He was arrested by two of his colleagues and taken to to Murang’a Sub-County Hospital for medical examination.
