A 95 year old grandma from Namawanga village, Bokoli Ward, Bungoma County is nursing serious injuries after she was allegedly raped by a 48 year old security guard.
She is admitted at Lugulu Mission Hospital.
The guard has since been arrested by police from Webuye.
Residents alleged the guard allegedly raped the grandma on Easter Sunday night during the heavy rains.
The grandma was visited in hospital by Bungoma women rep Catherine Wambilianga.
Webuye OCS John Bibao confirmed the incident saying the suspect, a security guard in Nairobi, will be arraigned in court once investigations are complete.
Police are also waiting for a medical report.
Wambilianga condemned the act promising to follow-up the case to conclusion.
“I will offer all the support that is needed to see that justice prevails. This is a traumatic experience. We need to join forces to stop the spread of these vices in the community. The cases are on the rise, we need to have a conversation over what is fueling these cases.”
