Ruth Moraa, a cop based at Changamwe police station has hit headlines after she saved a lady who was to be raped by two men. The lady had been invited to Mombasa from Western Kenya by a relative who directed her to meet a man who was to assist her to get a job.
However, the man turned out to be a wolf after he demanded sex in exchange for a job. The woman refused and fled the house and sought help from boda boda operators nearby.
One of the boda guys reportedly offered to shelter her for the night. Charo wrote to The Vigil that, “The boda boda man also turned on her and demanded sex. But she declined again and was directed to report at Changamwe Police Station.”
It is at the station that she met Moraa who hosted her then assisted her to Tahmeed bus booking offices and paid her Sh2, 000 fare to Luanda, over and above giving her some pocket money after she failed to identify the men who wanted to molest her.
