Residents of a Nairobi estate are mourning the death of five-year-old Amanda Mutheu, who lost her life at the hands of someone she trusted, her uncle.
In a devastating turn of events, witnesses recounted that the incident unfolded on Thursday night when the man, identified as her uncle by the police, stormed their house and found baby Mutheu in the company of her nanny.
Visibly disturbed and intoxicated, the man created a scene before overpowering the nanny and forcibly taking Mutheu from her arms.
Sensing imminent danger, the house girl ran out, screaming for help.
