A young Kenyan man who followed three young girls from a funeral to a church and locked them inside to sexually abuse them, was sentenced to 100 years in jail Wednesday.
Harrison Kinyua, aged 20, was handed the sentence by a court in the central town of Embu after pleading guilty to “defiling” two 13-year-olds and a 10-year-old in a church in the village of Kangaru in December.
The court heard he had locked the girls inside the church as they returned chairs that had been borrowed for a funeral.
Chief Magistrate Maxwell Gicheru said on handing down the sentence — which cumulates the three offences — that “the offence is serious and the accused should serve the sentence to deter others.” AFP
