Bomet Pastor Arrested in Kisii with Missing Form Four Girl
In a concerning incident that has sent shockwaves through Bomet County, a local preacher finds himself in police custody after being apprehended in the company of a 17-year-old Form Four student in Kisii.
The incident unfolded as they were about to board a matatu bound for Kisumu, raising numerous questions about the nature of their relationship and the circumstances leading up to their arrest.
The minor, who is a student at Ngererit Secondary School in Bomet, had been reported missing by her worried family members.
Authorities received the report at the Mogogosiek Police Station, situated in the North Rift County.
The disappearance of the young student cast a pall of worry over her loved ones, igniting a search operation to locate her and ensure her safety.
The breakthrough in this unsettling case came from an unexpected quarter: drivers affiliated with the Matatu Five Star Sacco at the Kisii bus terminal. Acting on their alert, the police sprang into action.
The tip-off revealed that the 25-year-old pastor, identified as Kipkoech Rotich, was spotted with the young girl while attempting to board another vehicle headed towards Kisumu.
Reports indicate that the pastor had been invited to Ngererit Secondary School to deliver sermons. However, what followed his appearance at the school has triggered a wave of concern.
It is alleged that he absconded with the young girl shortly after his visit. The ensuing period saw them evade law enforcement, thereby deepening the mystery surrounding their actions.
As the investigation continues, both the preacher and the minor are being held in custody at the Nyanchwa Police Station.
This detention serves as a temporary measure while awaiting their eventual transfer to the Mogogosiek Police Station. The purpose of this transfer is to facilitate further inquiry into the circumstances and events that led to the pair’s alarming journey.
