A woman captured on CCTV kicking and pinching a 15-month-old child in 2018 has been jailed for three years. Makadara senior resident magistrate Eunice Suter said as a first-time offender, the court would have considered a non-custodial sentence for Murugi. In the clip, the maid was seen feeding the child while kicking and pinching her. In her defence, the woman testified that she did not beat the child. The child's father told the Star that he was content with the sentence and hopes Murugi would mend her ways.
