The Federation of Women Lawyers in Kenya (FIDA-Kenya) has condemned the viral video showing elderly woman being set on fire to rid her of evil spirits by members of a church in Kapkwen Bomet.
The incident happened on February 22.
In a statement on Wednesday, FIDA condemned the action and requested the County Government of Bomet to put in place measures to safeguard women against all forms of violence.
FIDA-Kenya Chairperson Christine Kungu stated that Bomet Police Commander, Edward Imbwaga, assured the public that the church was shut down following the incident.
