On Tuesday night A city lawyer Joel Kyatha Mbaluka was arrested on claims that he has been defiling his own children and house-help.
The advocate runs a law firm Mbaluka and CO. Advocates and his offices are located near City Hall.
According to reports, Mbaluka, who was previously a director at a state regulatory board, took five of his 11 children for a medical check-up on Tuesday evening at the MP Shah hospital.
While at the hospital, he requested that three of the kids; a boy and two girls undergo HIV and gonorrhea tests.
Doctors, became suspicious of the weird request and asked Kyatha if he had reported the defilement cases to the authorities. Kyatha gave a suspicious answer which prompted the medics to call cops who took him to the parklands police station.
While being examined, the boy who is adopted told the doctor that their “uncle” on various occasions defiled them. The children were treated and transferred to the Anti-Human Trafficking Child Protection Unit in South B.
The case is being handled by the DCI as he is also known for doing shoddy business in his law career such as forging documents
According to Gigiri OCPD Richard Muguai, Mwatha is in their custody and will soon be taken to court.
“The matter has been taken over by the DCI headquarters. The only thing we are doing so far is having the suspect within our custody,” Mr Muguai told the daily, adding that this is a sensitive matter.
The advocate could face life imprisonment.
