One of the most horrific story I have ever
read...one that would having you questioning humanity...
23-year-old mother of two survived after she was gang-raped by some thugs, then tied to the rails where she watched as an oncoming train crushed her lower body in Timboni area in Kibarani, Mombasa.
Giving a chilling account from
her hospital bed, the traumatized young woman said the assailants, who she identified
as Kirenje and Otii, first raped her in turns, then hacked her with a machete
just next to her private parts, before they tied her legs across the railway
line and abandoned her to be crashed by a train.23-year-old mother of two survived after she was gang-raped by some thugs, then tied to the rails where she watched as an oncoming train crushed her lower body in Timboni area in Kibarani, Mombasa.
She was walking home from her mother’s house, a stone’s throw away across the railway line, when two men emerged from behind, gagged her unconscious and dragged her to a nearby bush.
"I heard the rustle of
leaves. My heart skipped a beat as people emerge from behind. They covered my
face and mouth until I passed out," she said.
The next thing she recalled is seeing the thugs
gang-raping her. One produced a machete and proceeded to hack her around the
groin. The pain was so excruciating that she passed out again.
"After that they tied
me and explained that they were doing that to me to ensure I die so that the
incident is never known."
Sobbing at the painful
memory, the woman said she lay in pain. Precious seconds passed as she slipped
in and out of a coma. Just then, she saw a train approaching. She willed her
body to move but was too horribly injured to expect any response.
"I watched helplessly as the train approached and crashed
over my legs in one of the most painful experiences in my life… I screamed at
the locomotive driver to spare me because I have two children to take care of
them"
She recalled screaming “Kirenje!” the name of one
assailant.
“It is by God’s grace I
survived. The locomotive driver miraculously halted the train after hearing my
wails.
"The driver alighted and came with a spotlight. With the help
of other people, they helped me from beneath the train but first, the train had
to pull back, still crashing over my body further," recalled the teary
patient.
She was almost numb with pain, wondering if it was all a bad
dream. "The suspects are yet to be arrested but I am told they have
escaped from Timboni. I hear they have been spotted in Mazeras, she said.
Medical director at Aga Khan Hospital in Mombasa Dr Twahir Ahmed said the patient had bled a lot but is responding well.
By yesterday, the hospital bill had risen to Sh1.3 million. Her mother appealed to the government to ensure the suspects are put behind bars so that her daughter gets justice.
