Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) have arrested a woman who was allegedly raped by her area chief in Kericho.

According to DCI boss George Kinoti, the woman only identified as Mercy is believed to have falsely accused her area chief of forcing himself on her, after her husband discovered that the two have been having a clandestine sexual affair since August.

The chief was on Wednesday on spotlight after allegations that he was caught with someone’s wife. Such an embarrassment went throughout the Cheptagulgei village in Londiani.

In a serious case lodged at Londiani police station on Tuesday afternoon, the woman from Kimasian location who was accompanied by her husband alleged that the area chief had stormed her homestead earlier in the day and ordered her out of the house.

“She further alleged that when she obliged, the chief then forced her into a nearby maize plantation where he raped her repeatedly. Detectives launched immediate investigations into the serious allegations against the local administrator who had since been detained,” said Kinoti.

DCI further reveals that when she accepted, the chief allegedly forced her in a nearby maize plantation and raped her.

Investigations revealed that the chief and Mercy have been in a relationship.

One message found on her phone revealed said, “Let’s meet hapo mahindi yenu,” the chief has also been sending her some money as records displayed she had received Ksh 327 followed by a message, “Nimekuwekea kitu tupatane I give you.”

The husband stumbled upon text messages and discovered both have been going for their steamy session in a nearby maize plantation.

To revenge, she came up with the falsified claims against the local administrator.

It took the DCI’s intervention to save the chief’s name. They have warned the public against making such false allegations for revenge.
