A Pastor who used anointing oil to defile and sodomise two siblings saying its ‘God’s oil’ has been sentenced to 50 years in jail.
James Njuguna Kuria of first born of the Holy Spirit was found guilty of defiling two siblings a boy aged 11 years and his sister aged 14 years.
The boy told court that Kuria who was a pastor invited him and his friends to his house and they found him with his wife.
He claims that the next morning when his wife went to work, he called him to his bedroom locked the door and went ahead to sodomise him.
The boy says that he was defiled severally by pastor Kuria and he used oil to penetrate which he said was from God.
The court heard he was not the only boy that he defiled but several others and he used to tell them that it was the blood of Jesus entering them and cleansing them when he defiled them.
The sister in her testimony told court that she was also defiled by the pastor inside the church alongside other girls after church service.
The perverted pastor gave them anointing oil and told them to drink it then they recited the Lords prayer as they removed their clothes and took turns defiling them.
He even went further to call a teenage boy and directed him to have sex with the girls while he watched.
After a week, he called them to his office again and told them to watch a pornographic video on his laptop then he instructed to do what they had watched.
At some point he defiled the girl when she was alone with him on one of the Sundays when he had gone to check why she did not go to church and thereafter he hit her with a jembe stick on her stomach.
The girl told court that she got pregnant for the pastor and gave birth in 2015 and DNA confirmed to court that he was the father.
In her judgement Principal Magistrate Caroline Njagi found pastor Kuria guilty of both counts of defilement against the two minors.
She ruled that the prosecution had proved beyond measurable doubt that the man of cloth had defiled the minors.
She dismissed the defence by Kuria that he was mentally not stable at the time the offenses were committed.
Njagi ruled that there was no evidence to show that he was had mental illness further saying that he was declared fit to stand trial.
The court ruled that in fact from evidence he produced it shows he was of sound mind as he was working as a pastor and had a role in a Sacco.
The court also noted that Kuria had confirmed that he had been in a relationship with the young girl who was a minor and had no difficulty recollecting the events leading up to the case.
The impact statement produced in court shows that the two victims who are siblings are yet to heal from the trauma they got as a result of the defilement.
The family asked the court to give them justice with their mother saying it was unfortunate that her children had to undergo such animosity right in front of her.
The girl said that she was forced to become a mother at an early age and the pastor took advantage of her and her brother due to the fact that they lived in abject poverty.
Magistrate Njagi sentenced hi to serve 50 years in jail for the first count and 20 years for the second count.
However, the court said the sentence would run concurrently meaning they he will serve 50 years only.
