Deliverance Church Pastor strips minors naked and burns their legs for allegedly stealing cakes worthy KSh80.
Three minors are nursing leg burns after a pastor burnt their legs for allegedly stealing a packet of cakes worthy Ksh. 80 in Kabarnet, Baringo County.
Joseph Mduma, 35-year-old Deliverance Church pastor caught one of the kids stealing his cakes at a bakery within Kaptimbor shopping centre.
With the help of two other workers at the bakery, they began burning the boy’s feet using the bakery oven.
The little boy was forced to reveal his two friends whom he said had been sharing the cakes.
“I was stripped naked and beaten up. The three men at the bakery then held me with my legs on the top of the oven even as I kept pleading for forgiveness. They continued until I had no energy anymore. They then forced me to name my accomplices. I had no option but to name two of my friends to be released,” said the Form Two student.
