A woman was thrown out of her marital home for refusing to drop the defilement case against her brother-in-law who raped her 8-year-old daughter.

Kenyan activist, Njeri Wa Migwi, who disclosed this in a post on Wednesday, March 27, 2024, said the father of the victim is also in support of dropping the case against his brother, preferring to resolve the matter at home.

“This lady has been thrown out of her marital home for continuing with a defilement case of her 8yr old child after pressure to drop the case since it’s her brother in law. They want the case to be resolved at home not to bring shame. The way rapists get to have community support,” she wrote.

“She is in our office because she’s been told not to go back unless she drops the case. No one cares about the harm the little one is going through. Today was the mention of the case and the family raised bail for the perpetrator.”
