“The doctor said my baby had breathing problems and he would take him to an incubator in one of the hospitals in town. When I asked him why he wanted to take him alone, he told me that I was too weak,” said Ms Chemutai.

During the next three days she tried frantically to get the baby back, but was rebuffed by Mr Oronje who insisted she pays a bill of Sh15,500 first, she said.

The amount was to cater for the delivery cost (Sh3,000), her stay at the hospital (Sh3,000 per day), Sh500 for a taxi among other costs.

Police case

Ms Chemutai’s sister Edina Lang’at said she later convinced Mr Oronje to release the baby, pending payment.
