It is also meant to find out if the judiciary is doing enough to curb this social evil and if has played any determination in its rise. 1. 2 method actingI spent two months at Limuru law act and I listened to numerous defilement trials. I held several discussions with the Magistrate and children officers and consulted numerous researches done on the same. 2. 0 INTRODUCTION Under the internal OFFENCES ACT (2006) a person who defiles a child aged eleven familys or below shall upon conviction be sendenced to imprisonment for life if the child is aged between 12 and 15 eld, the term of imprisonment shall not less than 20years and if the child is between 16-18 years old, the polluter faces a term of no less than 15 years behind bars.These argon penalties that one would hope would scare the wits out of any person who is at least of reasonably sound mind from conceiving the slightest idea of de register a minor in Kenya, only judging from the rampant cases of defilement this is not so. The harmonize of the society is that a parent conduces birth to a child and natures it, teaching it to grow into a responsible human beingness. The teacher then takes up the business of nurturing when the child is about four years of age impacting knowledge on the child.The church impacts moral grades on the child and the rest of the society moulds this child in preparation for greater responsibilities in the future. A child is a vulnerable member of society as they can barely survive on their own. The society is mandated with the responsibili ty of protecting the child solely it has abandoned that responsibility and even those closest to these children are hurting them. About one in all(prenominal) five inform crimes around Limuru area was a sexual offence and most of them being defilement cases.This disturbing practise has not only unnatural the girl child but even the boy child is no long-lived safe. The shocking revelation is that half of the defilement cases are by a relative followed by Close family friends, teachers and very few amaze strangers involved. Most of the children are vitiate at their homes, at a relatives house, on their way to school or to the shop. The home which was a safe heaven for every(prenominal) child is no longer safe and neither are the schools where these children spend the better part of their day.Several questions linger in the mind as one tries to figure out why Kenyan society has seemingly false this way. Was this evil ever-present but just not reported in the way it is today? I s it a sad reality recently revealed, or a growing modern menace? Does it derive from ignorance, perversity, or just plain evil? Are these the tell-tale signs of the last days as described in the discussion of Revelations as some would throw off it, or are they just illustrations of a decaying society? And how do we stop this abomination?One does not arouse to be a devout Christian to hope a millstone testament be cast about the complete of each and every perpetrator forward they are thrown into the wet. Neither does one obligate to be a reactionary to bank that the development of our modern society has had a role to play. any way, this appalling issue has to be urgently addressed. 3. 0 BODY 3. 1 DEFINATION OF DEFILMENT Oxford dictionary to damage the purity or the appearance of something. Sexual Offences Act S. 8 a person who commits an act which causes penetration with a child. . 2 BACKGROUND OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE IN KENYA The African man has always been viewed as sterling (prenominal) to the woman. Most of the African cultures portray the man as a superior being who should be come aftered without question. On the other hand the woman is painted as a submissive creature availed for the pleasure of men. This is aptly demonstrated in most of the Kenyan cultures. For example, the kikuyu culture calls the man mundu murume the word murume is derived from the word urume which means exceedingly courageous.In contrast, the woman is known as mutumia which is derived from the word tumia which means use. This is a major reason why the kikuyu man not only considers himself as the superior sex but also sees a woman simply as a vessel for his use (Kariuki 2004). Most cultures portray the girl child as an investment and usually when her time to get married comes what matters is the bride price they will receive. Often when a girl is getting married her parents will advise her to obey her husband and take care of him lest he will demand back the bride price (Davis on 1989).The boy child on the other hand is brought up being taught that it is weakness for a man to succumb to emotion as it makes you analogous a woman. And as most men age, they learn to cancel out or deny erotic sensations that are not specifically linked to what they think a real man is to feel (Stoltenberg 198933). The boys are raised up acquisition that a man gives instructions that should be followed without question and even join of Kenyan communities hasten encouraged chastising of women. Being a man is measured by dint of violence and sex treetopability.So, when masculinity is associated with aggression and sex conquest ,domineering sexual behavior and violence become not only a means of structuring ply relations between men and women , but also a way of establishing power relations among men (Heise 1995). In Kenya, it reaches its most extreme expression peradventure among the Gusii, for which LeVine (1959) wrote that all sexual intercourse was played as rape with women even in marriage expected to resist 3. 3 STATISTICS ON DEFILEMENT IN KENYA * In 1991- in a mixed boys school, boys invaded girls dormitory and raped 70 girls leading to 19 deaths. 2 May 1992, 15 girls were raped at Hawinga Girls, Nyanza province. * A joint report by TSC and a non-profitable organization revealed that 12660 students were sexually abused by their male teachers from 2003-2007. Out of all these only 633 teachers were foold with sexual abuse. * In 2010 more than 1000 teachers were fired for sexually abusing girls. * In a standard newspaper article published on 09/02/2010 there was a story of a teacher who mar a deaf girl getting her pregnant. * In 2004, 140 cases of students being defiled by teachers were reported, in 2008, 100 cases were reported and in 2009, 122 cases were reported. Out of every 100 rape cases handled by police, child honorables groups, and selected hospitals, 40 were committed by fathers according to the study conducted by the Chambers of Ju stice * patrol statistics showed that rape and defilement were the most prevalent crimes in 2010 even as other offences reduced by 5%. * Out of 57826 crimes reported in 2010, 785 were rapes and 2660 were defilements. In 2009 729 were rapes and 2242 were defilements. * A report given by the media in 2005 showed the following results MONTH RAPE DEFILEMENT July 33 51 August 10 22 kinfolk 3 28 October 0 15 November 7 18 December 6 27 TOTAL 59 161 * 42 cases of sodomy were also reported between July and December of 2005. 3. 4 PERPETRATORS Several researches have shown that fathers are the greatest perpetrators out of 100 reported cases 40 are by fathers. Other family members, neighbors, teachers and gangs are also topping the list. A research paper titled, A media coverage on sexual violence and its implication on educational leadership carried out by J. wanjiku Khamasi & Wanjiru Muita showed the following results.OFFENDER PROFILE BY NUMBER OF INCIDENCES REPORTED In R v MICHINO NJOROGE, LIMURU SPM, CR 69 OF 2011, 08/06/2011. The incriminate person was a cousin to the victim. In R v GODFREY MUGENDI NYAGAH. LIMURU SPM, CR 926 0F 2011, 27/06/2011, the accused was a neighbour. In R v JOHN NJIHIA KAHURO. LIMURU SPM, CR 256 OF 2010, 30/06/2011, the accused was a cousin to the victim and he even impregnated her forcing her to procure an abortion as she had a heart problem which couldnt allow her to carry the maternal quality at her age. In R v MOSES WAFULA.LIMURU SPM CR 451 OF 2011,28/07/2011 The accused was a father to the victim. These are just a few examples of the many defilement cases in Limuru carried out by either a family member or a neighbour. 3. 5 AGE OF DEFILEMENT VICTIMS Defilers are going for younger girls every wizard day. In Limuru the victims were aged between 9 to 15 years. In R v ANTHONY NJIHIA WANGARI. LIMURU SPM CR 401 OF 2011 29/06/2011. The victim was a 9year old girl. In R v CHARLES KIEMO LIMURU SPM CR 1130 OF 2010, 18/07/2011. The victims were b oys aged 12 and 14 years.In R v MOSES WAFULA. LIMURU SPM CR 451 OF 2011. 28/07/2011, the victim was a 10 year old girl. Researches have shown that even one month old babies are being defiled. ( J. wanjiku Khamasi & Wanjiru Muita) in a research paper titled violence against women by Winnie . v. mitulla show that in 1996, 9 children of age 2 4 12 of age 5 7 10 of age 8 10 8 of age 11 13 and 6 of age 14 were defiled whereas in 1995, 7 children of age 2 4 13 of age 5 7 22 of age 8 10 7 of 11 13 and 10 of 14 16 were defiled. hese may not be the comminuted numbers but they paint a vague picture of how children are suffering in the hands of defilers. 3. 6 POSSIBLE EXPLANATIONS OF WHY DEFILEMENT IS ON THE RISE 3. 6. 1 GENDER INEQUALITY AND PATRIACAL NOTIONS The Kenyan society has been natured in a way suggesting that the man is superior while the woman is inferior and is meant to be submissive to the man. As a result most women lack the ability to protect their children from their abusive husbands. Some even leave their matrimonial homes due to the score of suffering inflicted by their husbands leaving behind their children.I was reading a blog ion the internet where a girl narrates her ordeal after her mother leftfield due to constant beating by her father. As the first born she assumed her mothers duties which included having sex with her father who forced her to piece of land a bed with him. In R v MOSES WAFULA, LIMURU SPM CR 451 OF 2011, 28TH JULY 2011. The accused person actually threatened to kill the victim, who was his daughter, and her mother if he was sent to jail. The mother to the accused was quoted saying that his son was the man of the house and his wife had no right to question his actions 3. 6. CULTURAL PRACTISES Some of the cultural practises in Kenya have done more harm than good to the Kenyan child. An example is the Samburu community which practises a cultural practise known as beading. They justify this practise claiming it prevents promiscuousness when instead it encourages incest. Beading means that a girl as young as 9 years old is engaged to a relative sometimes as old as her grandfather by use of traditional attires popularly referred to as beads. During the engagement, the admirer places a special necklace around the girls neck to indicate he has officially booked the young one.He follows this by bringing beads in large quantities which are also put in girls neck as a sign of official commencement of intimate relationship though it does not lead to marriage as the two are related. The couple is allowed to have sexual intercourse but pregnancy is highly forbidden. Incas it does happen, it has to be terminated immediately despite the high risks involved. Early marriage which has been a wide practised culture is also defilement in its own sense because girls as young as 5years are forcefully married to older men.In a research paper empower gender, sexuality, and HIV a girl from Amhara Ethiopia is quoted s aying that, she hates early marriages as she was married off at five years and first had sex at 9 years. She says that her in-laws forced her to sleep with her husband who made her suffer all nighttime and after that night whenever day became night she was worried that she would go through the same ordeal. In R v MOSES WAFULA, LIMURU SPM CR 451 OF 2011, 28TH JULY 2011. The victim while giving her evidence tried to go to sleep her statement that her father had defiled her.On realising this, the prosecutor informed the magistrate and when they carried out an inquiry it came to their attention that the victim and the mother had been threatened by the accuseds mother. When we were in chambers the magistrate told us that in some customs fathers have sexual intercourse with their daughters as a way of appreciating themselves for raising them up. It sounds so ludicrous but its actually happening. 3. 6. 3 POVERTY Poverty in Kenya has become a reason for every social evil. Children have to look for unconcerned work in order to assist their parents in meeting basic needs.Incidences where a student was defiled while cleaning or fetching water for their teachers are very common. Aside from that some children are defiled and their defilers offer compensation to their parents who quickly take their money focusing on their economic problems. In R v JOHN NJIHIA KAHURO, LIMURU SPM CR 256 OF 2010, 30/06/2011. The accused was the victims cousin and he actually impregnated her. The father of the accused offered to compensate but luckily the victims mother in this case forsweard to accept it.However very many defilement cases go unreported as parents like to take the money leaving this social evil unpunished. Powerful men in the society also defile young girls and go unpunished as they are able to bribe the police and magistrates earning their freedom. This encourages people with power and money to take advantage of children as they know they can easily get forward with i t. 3. 6. 4 CULTURAL& SOCIAL STEREOTYPES According to the Pocket Oxford Dictionary, a stereotype is a person or thing seeming to conform to a firmly accepted type.Sex-role stereotypes have also been defined as the rigidly held and oversimplified beliefs that MALES & FEMALES possess distinct (and similar) psychological traits and characteristics. Traditionally, the female stereotypic role is to marry and have children. She is also to put her familys welfare before her own be loving, compassionate, caring, nurturing, and sympathetic and find time to be sexy and feel beautiful. The male stereotypic role is to be the financial provider. He is also to be assertive, competitive, independent, courageous, and career-focused hold his emotions in check and always initiate sex.Owing to the expectation that men should be breadwinners in the family, men turn to aggression in an attempt to suppress their status and continue dominating their wives or their close female relations when they perceive an economic rise by them. This means that the woman remains dependant on the man and condones his violent acts. This affects the children as they have no one to protect them as their mothers are week. Most of these girls believe they should be submissive and end up not even telling anyone their ordeal.Which is why some cases will go undiscovered unless the girl gets pregnant or contracts a disease. The woman is meant to keep herself for her husband and society views a lady who is not a virgin as lose. The value attached to female chastity is so high that even where a woman is a survivor of sexual abuse, the typical community response is to impound and stigmatise her. The shame and stigma attached to sexual violence, and the lenient penalties meted out on offenders in formal and traditional judicial systems, silences survivors. 3. 6. 5 FAILED INSTITUTIONSThe collapse of the rule of law in conflict situations encourages sexual crimes on a massive scale. The difference between the p rotector and the perpetrator is not clear anymore. The perpetrators and perpetuators of sexual violence in conflict and non-conflict settings are categorised into three groups. First the disciplined forces e. g. the police, army et. al. secondly family members and the community and thirdly the structures and institutions of protection (the political relation and its organs, UN, AU, and other humanistic organisations).It is often difficult to tackle impunity for sexual crimes committed during conflict because perpetrators and perpetuators often take up powerful positions in post-conflict governments. This gives them an avenue to intimidate their victims. The UN and similar institutions refuse to take responsibility for these crimes. Their correction policy often entails forwarding offenders together with reports on them to their respective countries judicial systems. This practise takes away any hope of arbitrator for the survivors.This is very evident in Kenya as very many childr en were defiled during the 2007-2008 post-election violence and 4 years down the line no justice has been granted. We are only hoping that the ICC can give the survivors some peace of mind but we all know that, that is politic miles away from happening. 3. 7 LAWS GOVERNING THE PROSECUTION OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE AGAINST CHILDREN 3. 7. 1 The Constitution of Kenya the bill of rights S. 53(1) (d) states that every child has a right to be protected from abuse, neglect, harmful cultural Practises, all forms of violence, inhuman discourse and punishment and hazardous or exploitive labour. . 7. 2 Sexual Offences Act, 2006 defilement of a child * gray 11 years or less- life imprisonment. * Aged between 12-15 years- not less than 20years. * Aged between 16- 18 years- not less than 15 years 3. 7. 3 The Childrens Act, 2001 S. 13(1) provides that a child is entitled to protection from physical and psychological abuse, neglect and any other form of exploitation including sale, trafficking or abduc tion by any person. 3. 7. 4 The Criminal Procedure Code, cap 75 of the laws of Kenya S. 186 3. 7. 5 The Employment Act, 2007 S. 6 3. CHALLENGES FOR SEEKING REDRESS IN SEXUALLY ASSAULTED CHILDREN 3. 8. 1 SLOW JUDICIAL SYSTEM It becomes very frustrating for the complainant, the children, and those filing the suit on behalf of the children when a matter takes over two years to be resolved. The prosecution tends to seek endless adjournments for various reasons to wit, lack of police file, attester not being in court, absence of the doctor or the investigating officer amongst other things. Courts are supposed to be liberators but instead they have become instruments of subjugation. 3. 8. 2 P3 AND PRC FORMDefilement victims are required to fill a P3 form after being examined at a government hospital however the P3 form is not detailed and is inadequate to fill. The PRC form was introduced during the national reproductive health strategy 2009-2012 it was meant to replace the P3 form but some doctors have said its alike detailed and it feels like a research tool, whereas the P3 Form is very basic as it catches the physical state and any injuries to the genitalia, with special reference to the labia majora, labia minora, vagina, cervix and also notes presence of discharge or venereal diseases.The P3 form is supposed to be given free of charge but in some hospitals in rural areas it is sold at ksh. 1500 which they say is the doctors fee to go and testify in court and this makes some people prefer to spend that money on other basic needs rather than on a document. 3. 8. 3 POOR INVESTIGATIONS AND PROSECUTIONS jurisprudence prosecutors have little knowledge on the essentials of evidence. This makes their prosecution very poor and the experienced advocates have a very easy time defeating the prosecution case. The police also tend to mishandle exhibits and there are endless incidences of missing police files.There is also a lot of corruption within the police circles esp ecially if the accused person is influential or one of them. 3. 8. 4 CONFLICTING MEDICAL REPORTS When the victim is defiled they go hospital for first aid, they are then sent to a government hospital for the P3 form to be filled. In most cases the doctor who treat the victim and the one who fills the P3 form give conflicting reports putting reasonable doubt in the prosecution case. 3. 8. 5 CULTURAL AND SOCIAL STIGMA IN REPORTING CASES In most Kenyan cultures topics on sex are still discussed in hushed tones.The importance of a girl being married as a virgin is still over emphasized. This means that a defiled child is unclean and is hence stigmatised. In some cases the child is even blamed. Some parents silence their children as they believe if people know no one will want to marry them and if anyone does the bride price will be very little. This makes most people opt for other methods of conflict resolution. 3. 8. 6 IGNORANCE OF THE PUBLIC Despite the many awareness programs and cam paigns carried out most Kenyans still have no idea of what they should do in the case of sexual violence.Most will not go to hospital as they do not know about the 72 hours policy. Others will clean the defiled child and the clothes they were wearing hence destroying evidence, making the police reluctant to prosecute due to lack of physical evidence. 3. 8. 7 GENDER DESKS law have no skills on how to handle cases of sexual abuse. There are minimum resources to equip and train police officers on how to effectively manage gender desks. 4. 0 CONCLUSION 4. 1 POSSIBLE AVENUES OF DEALING WITH DEFILEMENT 4. 1. 1 APPLYING THE EQUALITY PROVISIONS IN THE NEW CONSTITUTION S. 9 entitles everyone to the right of freedom and security. Which includes the right not to be subjected to any form of violence from either public or private sources. S. 53 Every child has a right to be protected from abuse, neglect, harmful cultural practices, all forms of violence, inhuman treatment and punishment, and ha zardous or exploitative labour S. 27 states that everyone is equal before the law and have a right to equal protection and equal benefits under the law. These provisions emphasize that a child is as important as every other person and should be protected.If we emphasize these provisions then we will all take it upon ourselves to protect children from this inhuman practise. Each one of us will know we have a responsibility to protect the child. 4. 1. 2 CIVIL EDUCATION We need to educate Kenyans that defilement is not the victims fault and that tinge measures need to be taken in the case of a child being defiled. they need to understand that it is in the best interest of the child to be taken to a hospital within the first 72 hours as it makes it possible to prevent some sexually transmitted infections.It also ensures that there is developed evidence making prosecution easier. 4. 1. 3 ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY IN COLLECTING EVIDENCE It may be definite that a child was defiled but at times it becomes hard to connect the accused person to that crime. Measures like DNA need to be compound in collecting evidence in defilement cases. This is to ensure that the defence has very little avenues to create doubt as the burden of proof in criminal cases is very high. It will also add weight to the P3 form evidence. 4. 1. LEGISLATION TO CURB CULTURAL PRACTISES ENCOURAGING DEFILEMENT As earlier stated in this paper some of our cultures are the reason why we are still struggling with defilement in Kenya. Its about time parliament enacted laws that curb practises that infringe the rights of children exposing them to sexual violence and exploitation. The government has a responsibility to protect its citizens and children are part of that responsibility. Severe punishments should be set for parents who marry off their young daughters, those carrying out FGM, those practising things like beading among others.We are our culture however that does not justify inhuman practises that r uin tomorrows generation. 4. 1. 5 SPECIAL DESKS IN POLICE send FOR SEXUALLY ASSAULTED VICTIMS The government needs to train some officers to specifically deal with sexual assaulted victims. There should be a special desk for sexually assaulted victims where they will be accorded special care and advised on the measures they should take. They should also accord these victims protection from further abuse. 4. 1. 6 HOMES FOR ABUSED CHILDRENChildren being abused in their own homes should be taken away by children officers and placed in homes. This way they will be protecting these children from more harm. They will also give these children counselling and hopefully these children can live a normal life someday. 4. 1. 7 THE SEXUAL OFFENCES ACT I still feel like the life sentence is too lenient. A person who defiles a child as young as 3months old is not any better than a murderer because a child this young has very few chances of a normal life after that ordeal. I strongly feel castrati on is a punishment that should be incorporated into the act.No disorder or any other explanation people have attempted to offer can justify this inhumanity and with the rate at which its raising people need to realise the seriousness of their actions. 4. 2 IN SUMMERY Defilement is an evil thats on the rise every day in this country. And its not just the girl child crying out but even the boy child is no longer safe. Children are Kenyas future and if we dont destroy this villain called defilement in a few years we will be having a generation of abused, angry and people craving for revenge.This will breed a generation of criminals which means we are destroying Kenyas tomorrow. So we all have a mandate to stop this evil. I hope by the time i am admitted into the bar I will not experience what I axiom during my judicial attachment. 4. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I would like to thank the school for the chance and support through my judicial attachment. I would also like to thank madam Ireri, Lim uru resident magistrate, for her devoted support and all the Limuru court staff in general. 4. 4 RECOMMENDATIONI recommend this this report to NGOs dealing with sexual violence and children rights, Legal scholars and the public in general. 5. 0 REFERENCES 5. 1 STATUTES 1.
