Kenyans have been left in shock after reports emerged that a house girl stole Kshs104 million from her employer in Lang’ata.
The house girl identified as Shelmith Kiprop, also known as Jerop, stole the said amount of money, with the help of her accomplices, on May 5.
She was however arrested on May 13 and arraigned at Kibera Law Courts on Monday. The accused was charged with conspiring to commit felony alongside Caleb Nagomere Rasto ,Agaziva Brain Kenneth Jackline Minayo Kinzi and Eunice AkinyiÂ
So far only Kshs 2.5 million has been recovered according to the police report.
Through her lawyer Danstan Omari, Jerop’s employer told the court that she has been receiving threats due to the case while requesting that the accused persons should not be released on bond
The house help and her accomplices are said to have stolen from the complainant in cashs, Kshs4,000,000, USD 806,000, jewelry worth Ksh.4,000,000, copies of a logbook and title deeds with all their values accumulating to Kshs104 million.
The report has caused mixed reactions among netizens with some saying that they would wish to be in the house help’s shoes so that they don’t reveal where the rest of the money is.
