A Nairobi court has sentenced 3 men, Edward Gitau, Nicholas Mwangi and Meshak Mwangi to death for stripping and sexually assaulting a woman they believed was dressed too provocatively.
The incident which happened in Nairobi, Kenya’s capital, saw the men's sentences being commuted to life imprisonments due to Kenya’s stance on carrying out executions.
The victim was attacked at a petrol station on the outskirts of Nairobi back in 2014. She was then stripped, sexually assaulted and her phone and cash stolen by a violent mob, all because she was wearing a mini skirt which her attackers deemed ‘provocative.’
