The case will be mentioned on January 18, 2023 after their Christmas Day mess.
DCI Child Protection Unit detectives arrested the suspect and his accomplice after a video of an adult giving a 3-year-old child whiskey was circulated in some media outlets.
This comes after former Nairobi governor Mike Sonko shared a gruesome video that shocked netizens, including online detectives who spread information to undercover criminals who specialize in hunting down child criminals.
South B DCI Academy detectives carried out a thorough analysis using their latest software to track child offenders online and discover the identities of the suspects.
Edward Ndirangu Muhuka, 22, and Abdulmajid Hassan Arafat, 19, were startled from their sleep in the Thindigua and Pangani estates, respectively, as part of an undercover investigation to arrest the suspects.
Detectives then learned that the two had gatecrashed a Christmas party where their common friend had been invited, stayed past their time limit, and behaved violently as a result of the level of kindness shown to them.
The two were charged with failing to protect a child from drugs and substance abuse in violation of section 24 (1) (a) as read with section 24 (2) of the Children Act No. 29 of 2022.
The first accused entered a plea of guilty, and the second accused entered a plea of not guilty. The charges were brought before the Kiambu Law courts.
