A missing teenage girl has
been found with a 26-year-old man who allegedly took her as his wife without
the consent of her parents.
The man was arrested after
members of the public alerted area Chief Peter Oula who received information
the 13-year-old girl was staying in a church owned by the suspect’s father in
Rangwe, Homa Bay county, Kenya.
In a report by the
Standard, police stormed the church and found the two naked. The man tried to
run away but he was nabbed by the officers.
“The young man wanted to
escape but police got hold of him. He was responsible for the girl’s decision
to drop out of school for an early marriage,” said the chief.
The girl had gone missing
from their home for over three months and the parents had reported the matter
to the police.
“We have been following up
on the case after the girl’s parents reported their daughter had gone missing
three months ago,” said Oula. The man’s father tried to stop the arrest saying
the girl had gone to the church to receive special prayers.
“The suspect’s father lied
to us, saying that the girl had come to church for prayers. This made us
conclude he was part of the efforts to have the girl married early,” Oula said.
It is the best time to make some plans for the future and it’s time to be happy.

It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
