Many of you must have seen the story of the Ugandan baby who was abused and tortured by the maid looking after her in Uganda.I actually did not cover the story.I didn't load the video cos i just could not watch it.People sent it to me and i read about it,but just
did not wanna watch that video,so i didn't feature the story.But i'm happy to hear the little child involved in that abuse is getting justice.Just imagine if the parents had not put a surveillance camera in their home?They would not have seen what their maid was getting up to.And trust me,that child would have died from internal injuries eventually,cos that maid will not stop that abuse,it would have carried on.
Thankfully,the child who was viciously assaulted by the maid in the video that went viral last week has recovered from her injuries and is back in the loving arms of her parents.
In another development,the family of the Ugandan baby who was tortured by their maid today met with Uganda's Inspector General of Police, Kale Kayihura, today November 24th where the IGP promised that baby Arnella will get justice.
I am sure they will.It has become a national issue and the whole of Africa not just Uganda,is horrified by what that little Ugandan baby went through.
I just can't imagine the emotions of the family when they saw the video.They must have been trembling seeing that abuse.
According to Ugandan NTV report, the house-help, 22year old Jolly Tumuhirwe faces up to 15 years in jail for attempted murder. The lady appeared at Nakawa Magistrates Court in Uganda on Nov. 20th after police concluded their investigations. The police say she was charged under the Anti-torture Act
The court didn't grant her bail, so Jolly is currently remanded at Luzira prison in Uganda. The maid had only worked with the family for one month before she was filmed brutally assaulting the baby. The baby's father Erick Kimanzi, admitted to beating the maid after watching the video.
