KENYA – Edda Wakesho, a househelp in Kiembeni Estate, Mombasa, filmed herself engaging in the act with the minor and later posted it online for financial gain.
On Wednesday, March 2, Senior Resident Magistrate Florence Macharia slapped her with a life sentence for defiling the boy and a further 10 years for filming the act.
Ms Wakesho was charged with def!ling a minor and making obsce.ne materials. She committed the offence between June and October 2021.
According to the investigating officer, the accused is part of a child p0rn0graphy syndicate that collaborates with rogue house helps to abu.se children and film the acts.
Wakesho in her defence said that she innocently accepted a friend request from Facebook and was introduced to a page where people post nu.de photos and videos.

The court heard that the minor’s mother received a video clip of the wicked act from a foreign mobile number.
