"Tragedy at Jacaranda Gardens, Nairobi. As the community remains in shock after a heartbreaking incident that took the life of baby Amanda—an innocent child whose life was cut short in a horrific way.
The tragedy happened yesterday at apartment C4-205. According to reports, Amanda’s uncle—allegedly drunk—caused a commotion, overpowered the house help, and in a shocking act of violence, threw baby Amanda from the balcony. Neighbours and security rushed her to KU Referral Hospital, but sadly, she died while receiving treatment.
The suspect, who is the biological brother of Amanda’s mother, was restrained at the scene and handed over to police. The DCI is currently investigating.
It is deeply disturbing that such violence was committed by a close family member. No reason can justify this brutal act.
We send our heartfelt condolences to the family. May justice be served."
