Jessica Nawire kidnapped the 2-year-old baby and absconded
It is the end of the road for a Ugandan woman who was employed as
house-help but wanted to make extra illegal pay by kidnapping her
madam's little 2-year-old girl and disappearing for two weeks as she has
been arrested.
The Kenyans reports that Jessica Nawire was nabbed at the Busia
border with Baby Kaity Amanda, by police officers acting on a tip-off
from a stranger.
Nawire was then taken to the Busia Police station where she was
locked up as the baby's parents were being sought to come and pick their
child.
The house-help however said she fled with the baby because she had not been paid her three-month salary.
Baby Amanda remained with her uncle Maurice Ochieng at the station,
as her parents travelled to the border town to reunite with her.
Mr Ochieng said that he was in Uganda following a lead before he was informed of the arrest by Ugandan police.
“I was in Nayemba following a lead when police contacted me at around 2pm,” Ochieng was quoted by a local daily.
It would be recalled that the baby's mother, Fiona Akinyi, had
taken to social media to broadcast the shocking news by circulating
photos of her two-year-old as she pleaded with people to help her locate
her baby.
The police are now investigating the matter although it is obvious
the house-help was lying as she had only worked for her madam for two
weeks.
