A five-year-old boy has been admitted to hospital after he was sexually assaulted by a pastor at Matura village in Ol Kalou.

The victim was rescued by villagers and human rights crusaders at a forest near his home and taken to Ol Kalou Sub-district Hospital.

According to Mr Wahome Kamoche, who rescued the boy, the 42-year-old suspect wooed the minor to the forest with sweets and promised to teach him how to hunt doves.

He said that the pastor also promised to buy the boy a toy car.

Relatives who heard the boy’s distress call rushed to the scene and found the man committing the heinous act.

"We found the man half naked sexually molesting the boy who was in deep pain. The pastor upon realising our presence disappeared into the bush," noted Kamoche.

He said residents caught up with the man but attempts to lynch him were thwarted by police.

Nyandarua OCPD Jasper Ombati said that the suspect has been locked up at Ol Kalou Police Station and would soon be arraigned in court.

Kamoche who is a human rights crusader condemned the act and said such incidences were on the rise in the area.
