Carolyn Auma, a housekeeper in Nairobi, has been arrested and brought to court with Joseck Obima, who is said to be her boyfriend. People say that the two of them left the child of the girl's boss to die while they were making out in the bedroom.
When the accused went before the senior magistrate in the Kibera law courts, she was said to have let her lover into the house as soon as her boss left. She was left to take care of her boss's six-month-old baby.
Detectives who were working on the case found out that the house has CCTV cameras, which showed how Joseck Obima got into the house of the person who filed the complaint. The child died because the two of them went into the bedroom and forgot about it.
The housekeeper called her boss to tell her that something was wrong with the child. She was told to take it to the hospital, but when she got there, they told her it was already dead.
