According to the girl's mother, the pastor of the Pentecostal church committed the heinous act on Friday last week.

He is said to have lured the little girl to his house as she headed home from school and defiled her.

The girl's mother who addressed the media at Kibwezi Sub-county children office on Wednesday said the 'Shepherd' should be arrested and charged with the offense.

She claimed the suspect gave the victim Sh50 to silence her.

The mother said the pastor warned her daughter not to disclose the incident to anyone.

"My daughter was given Sh50 and warned against giving out any information concerning the incident. The money was surrendered to the police," She said.

She said the police are yet to get a statement from the suspect who is walking around freely.

"The man should be behind bars, the police should hurry and apprehend him and let him pay for his crime," she said.

This writer's efforts to get information concerning the matter from the local police bore no fruits.
