KAMPALA – UGANDA: The 37 year old maid, Tumuhirwe Precious, who pleaded guilty of torturing a 4 year old child, causing her grievous body harm has been sentenced to 40 years in jail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Appearing before Kira Chief Magistrate Shallon Niwaha, Tumuhirwe faced charges of torture for the December 27, 2024 attack that happened at Kikoko Zone, Namataba Cell, Kirinya Ward in Wakiso District.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tumuhirwe was employed as a housemaid at the Home Michael Mwesigwa and was last week arrested in Kabale, where she fled after the assault of Claire Tumwekwa (the victim) the Miner in the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video, which shows Precious repeatedly assaulting the minor in a bathroom, triggered widespread condemnation, with calls for swift justice and tougher penalties for child abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon Precious’s arrest, the Child and Youth Affairs Minister Balaam Barugahara lauded the police for their swift action in hunting down the culprit, thus calling for a joint action in fighting such acts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
