A 68-year-old man has been sentenced to 45 years in prison for defiling, sodomizing, kidnapping and sedating an 11-year-old minor.

Mombasa principal magistrate Vincent Adet convicted Granton Mwamati after he found him guilty of committing the offences against a vulnerable minor for three months.

“Prosecution has proved its case beyond any reasonable doubt against the, suspect the heinous acts were committed by a man who the minor perceived was her grandfather and, would protect her however the court established that he took advantage of the minor’s trust to lure her into his house and hold her hostage for three months to meet his sexual desires,” he ruled.

The magistrate said the accused person should serve the sentences concurrently.

The court noted that all the nine prosecution witnesses who testified before his court have evidence that linked the suspect to the heinous act.

“It’s unfortunate that according to witnesses, you were one of the active members in the search on the whereabouts of the minor, all along while the search went on within your vicinity you knew the minor was in your house where you held her captive and each of those days you would leave her sedated and in the evening after the search for her you would go back to your house and defile her,” the magistrate said.
