A man has been charged with beating up his house help causing her some bodily harm.
Jackson Obara Onyango is accused of beating up Anastancia Mutheu Paul at his home in South C in Langata Sub-County within Nairobi County.
The court was not informed of the immediate reason for the alleged assault but it heard that the accused person committed the offence on October 21, 2023.
He denied the charges and pleaded for lenient bond terms.
The prosecution did not object to his release on bond but said that it was ready to supply the accused person with all the witness statements and documentary evidence that the defense would rely upon during the entire trial.
Kibera Senior Principal Magistrate Monica Maroro released the accused person on a cash bail of Sh 10,000 with the surety of the same amount and with a credible contact person.
She directed that the case be mentioned later this month for a mention, further directions, and for a hearing date to be set.
