A body of a young school-going girl has been found dumped at Orata area, Noonkopir Kitengela in Kajiado County.
The body of the seven-year-old girl, stashed in a gunny bag, was found naked and rapped with a bedsheet.
The suspicious gunny bag beside the road was spotted by a bodaboda rider.
It is suspected the girl, who is yet to be identified by name, was defiled before being killed and dumped by the unknown assailant(s).
The girl was oozing blood from her private parts pointing out a possible case of defilement.
Confirming the incident (On phone) Isinya sub-county police commander Ben Changulo condemned the crime saying they have launched investigations into it.
The body was moved to Shallom Community Mortuary awaiting postmortem and identification by her family.
Shocked residents of the area condemned the incident and called for stern action against those behind the incident.
Residents said Noonkopir has recently reported a surge in crimes with two other bodies recovered three months ago within the same area.
They are now calling for enhanced security to avert crimes that have become rampant including during the day.
This comes barely one week after a 10-year-old girl was defiled and dumbed in a thicket by an unknown person while heading home from school in the Kisaju area.
