Kenyan National Sent To Swedish Jail

Rumours are spreading in Stockholm that a Kenyan national has been sent to jail by a Swedish court after going through a trial which lasted a few weeks. Details are scanty but according to KISS agents working on the case, the Kenyan has been residing in Stockholm for more than 10 years, is a father of two children while he is in his early 30s.

The Kenyan was at the Kiboi Memorial service last month while he was last seen at the Wazee Hukumbuka Party that was held in Märsta at the end of last month. According to reports, the Kenyan was sent to jail on an offence related to assault.

The Kenyan is not known to be a criminal and reports that he might have landed in jail surprised observers who know him. A Kenyan he works with and who lives in Vällingby could not be reached for comment.

Recently, a Kenyan was sent to jail for infecting a Swedish woman with HIV while another Kenyan who was facing charges at about the same time was sent to rehab after being acquitted of rape but found guilty of “minor assault”.

The prosecution failed to prove a case of rape against the Kenyan although it could be shown that he had “mistreated” but not brutalized a Swedish woman prompting the court to send him for rehab for two months.

Some Kenyans who attended the Kenyatta day function in Stockholm went straight to the function after the reception was over.

The event was attended by Mr. Mark Gaya, Mr. Daniel Mwaura, Mr. And Mrs Makan Macharia, Mr. And Mrs Nashon Mbugua, Mr. And Mrs Willy Nyambok, Ms Winnie Mukaru, Mrs Grace Nyambura, Ms Naomi Wambui, Mrs Wamuyu (who came all the way from Uppsala), Mrs Margarette Njihia, Mama Mberi  among others.A Kenyan took the opportunity to welcome (in advance) Kenyans who were present to his residence in anticipation of the arrival of his family and two children from Kenya.

The Kenyan said that he was happy to announce that the DNA test he took some weeks back to prove that he was the biological father of his children was out and added that his political enemies who have been using the issue of his kids to undermine him should now be ashamed.

A Kenyan reportedly informed the Immigration authorities that the Kenyan who took the DNA test was not the real father of the kids and that the kids had been fathered by a neighbour when the Kenyan in question was busy politicking.
