Another Mugo wa Wairimu or worse? Meru doctor beats and rapes patient

After the unfolding of the callous sex assault cases in Nairobi by one ‘gynecologist’ Mugo wa Wairimu, it seems like yet another has emerged.

Police in Meru arrested a doctor who was accused of raping a 26-year-old woman.

The police on Wednesday seized the doctor at around 5pm as he left his private clinic in Makutano, Imenti Central.

The woman had recorded a statement claiming that the doctor, who is in his mid-30s, beat her up before raping her in his home on Saturday last week.

“I told him that I did not feel safe but he forced me to his place since I was in his car. I was vulnerable since he owed me money, which I wanted him to repay. He had also broken my two phones,” said the woman.

Witnesses report that when she declined to get into the house, the doctor allegedly threw her to the ground and started beating her up, while two of his friends watched.

The woman said she was in a two-month romantic relationship with the doctor but terminated it after he became abusive.

The case awaits to be heard in court at a later date.
