- Sex workers in Maua Town are offering free services in a bid to combat bestiality
- A man arrested for performing an indecent act on a cow stated he feared contracting HIV/Aids from women
Concerned with rising incidents of moral decadence in Meru County, with more cases of bestiality being reported, commercial sex workers in Maua town have volunteered to help curb the menace.
The women of the night have offered to give free service to a man who was found engaging in a bestiality act with a cow on Wednesday last week and his ilk.
The sex-workers said they were ready to offer themselves for free to such men or alternatively ‘service’ them on credit, if that is what it would take for such perverts to give animals a break.
One of then, only identified as Lydia, said the move was to save animals the agony and save the public the indignity of consuming animal products that were contaminated in such disgusting fashion.
“How will, for instance, one feel if they learnt that the chicken or beef they are consuming or milk came from a cow that has been subjected to that kind of molestation?” she said.
The man from Kibandene village, Igembe South, was found in the act after residents were woken up by continuous barking of dogs in the homestead.
The 35-year-old man, who has since been arrested, said he resorted to bestiality for fear of contracting HIV/Aids from women! He also said he was too shy to either approach women or buy contraceptives if he had to sleep with one.
Lydia, in the company of her colleagues at a popular brothel in the town, wondered why the man could not seek help from them whereas they were spending sleepless night without customers in some days.
“We sometimes spend several days without clients and if such a man would approach us with a genuine case, we would have considered it. We have some regular clients whom we serve on credit and pay at the end of the month,” another sex worker, only identified as Kendi, said.
Residents from the region have criticised the man’s act, arguing that he was embarrassing other young men from the region and being unfair to animals.
“We heard continued barking of dogs and decided to go and find out what was going on. Surprisingly we found a young man, perched atop a stool while penetrating the cow that was tied in its shed,” said Jared Kinyua, a resident.
The owner of the cow said he was confused on what to do with the animal since he would not want to keep it anymore and that no one would be willing to buy it, having already known the story behind it. Other residents have raised concerns about the rising cases of men having sex with animals in the area
