A church leader was yesterday charged in Eldoret Law Court with sodomising his 14-year-old son.

The accused person, a lay leader with the Anglican Church of Kenya in Ausin Gishu County, was charged before Senior Principal Magistrate Peter Ireri.

He was charged with defilement contrary to section 8 (1) of the Sexual Offences Act No. 3 of 2006.

He, however, denied the charges.
