Migori town boda boda operators frog-marched a 40 years old man for defiling his daughter, 15, in a citizen arrest to Migori police station.
Samuel Odhiambo Ogur from Dip Area was beaten and arrested by the riders after his wife told them how the man defiled the minor while she was away from home.
Chanting and roughing Oguru, they marched the offender to police station after deciding not to lynch him.
“I did it only once and was overwhelmed by dark spirits,” Ogur said.
Petro station bodaboda chairman Moses Onditi said he rescued Ogur from the public who were baying for his blood over the incident.
He said the daughter admitted she was raped by the suspect.
“The woman was crying when she passed the boda boda stage, when they inquired she spilled the beans,” Onditi said.
The bodaboda operators
went for the daughter before searching for the father to listen to all sides of
the story upon which they were forced to take him to the police station for
further interrogation.
