Police urge rape survivor to identify her assailant in video

The police have implored the survivor of a rape incident which took place on River Road, Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, to come forward and identify her rapist and his gang.

The police made the call on Tuesday as the Nairobi Director of Criminal Investigations, Nicholas Kamwende, issued a statement on the viral rape video.

“That was wrong and criminal. We urge the victim to visit my office and help us in getting the men behind it. This can happen again to anyone,” Standard Media reported Kamwende as saying.

Kamwende added that a team of detectives have been assembled and ordered to pursue the matter to a logical conclusion.

In the video, which has gone viral in Kenya, a woman was raped by a man believed to be a street boy, while about four others watched and cheered him on.

The amateur video that was recorded on an unknown date only identified one Baite attacking the woman.

The woman screams for help, saying she is being raped, but one of the onlookers is heard threatening to kill her.

The woman pleads with them not to kill her as she gives up the struggle while the excited squad watched and cheered on Baite.

“Don’t kill me please; and please warn that person to stop recording. He might cause me to be killed,” cried the woman in the video.
