A 20-year-old Kenyan woman was caught on camera on Monday, attempting to breastfeed the employer’s, 2-year-old baby.
Catherine Mbuyuka was arraigned at a Nyeri court on Wednesday after she was seen in CCTV footage, lifting her blue t-shirt and holding the baby on her laps ready to breastfeed.
Kiganjo residents in Nyeri also shocked the court after revealing that the suspect is HIV positive and that she attempted to infect the baby with the virus.
Mbuyuka, appearing before Magistrate JM Macharia, was also accused of fondling the baby on different occasions.
The three-minute CCTV footage has since been shared across various social media platforms.
The accused, however, denied the charges and was released on Sh300,000 (₦1.07 million) cash bail.
Her case will be mentioned on March 27.
