On July 20, 2010, in a village in Kakamega County, Sandra (not her real name) and her young sister were playing outside their home when their father Kamande (not his real name) asked them to go to the shop.
He, however, asked 10-year-old Sandra to stay behind as her sister ran off to the shop. Kamande then called his young daughter to his bed and defiled her. He repeated the heinous act the following day and threatened to kill her if she ever told anyone about the incident. Kamande and Sandra’s mother had separated several months earlier and married another wife. Sandra and her sister lived with him.
