The Kajiado court has ordered the detention of a woman facing murder charges after allegedly killing her two-year-old daughter by cutting her into pieces with a knife and then eating parts of her internal organs.
Olivia Naserian is accused of murdering her daughter Glory Njeri at their home in Kitengela’s Milimani Estate on Sunday, then ingesting her insides before neighbours alerted the police, who arrived on the scene and apprehended her.
She appeared before Chief Magistrate Jane Kamau on Tuesday who ordered that Naserian remain in police custody for another 10 days to allow police officers to complete their investigations.
Naserian is expected to appear for the hearing on May 8.
Naseren 24, a Fourth Year Commerce student at a local university is alleged to have killed her child, Glory Njeri, after she parted ways with the minor’s father.
According to a police report, the woman is said to have cut her baby into pieces before feeding on the intestines and kidney, in an incident that enraged area residents.
The horrifying attack was captured on video by neighbours who tried in vain to break the door.
Meanwhile, the remains of her daughter were moved to Kitengela’s main hospital morgue.
