Atieno, who later realized what Achando had done after she finished bathing said at first, she thought it was her son who had locked the bathroom door.
“On inquiring what had happened, my son told me that ‘aunty ameenda na simu na laptop’ (aunty has gone with your phone and laptop),” she said.

Lang’ata Police boss B Mwanthi said that the matter was under investigation and police had already launched a manhunt for the suspect.
