A family in Kagaa village in Ol Kalou, Nyandarua County was treated to a bizarre incident when a man allegedly dug a hole into a class eight girl's bedroom and defiled her on Saturday night.
The commotion in the girl's bedroom woke up her mother who called for help from the neighbours.
According to a report by the Standard, the girl was later on taken to hospital where she was admitted while in a critical condition with blood oozing from her private parts.
Nyandarua county commissioner Boaz Cherutich confirmed the incident.
"This is a very bizarre incident as the man had dug a tunnel to access the room late into the night. It is the mother who heard the commotion and woke up only to find a man in the room," Cherutich was quoted by the Standard.
He also noted that doctors had assured the girl will be fine. She is currently in a stable condition.
The county commissioner said the suspect was a renown drug addict in the area.
"We have information linking a man who is known in the village to the incident. He is a known drug addict and might be the one who defiled the girl" he told the Standard.
