“I went to my house. The GSU followed me and said they were looking
for young men who were involved in the violence. They were 3(three)
G.S.U men who got into my house. I had not locked my house and
when they came in I did not bother to lock because they were security
men who were supposed to care for us. One of the G.S.U officers stood at the door, the other two got in. They told me they were going door to
door looking for the young men who were involved in the violence. I
told them that they would check since I was not hiding anyone. I told
them that I was alone. By that time I was alone in the house. They
told me that we, women, were the ones encouraging the young men
because we were preparing food for the “Mungiki”. They were using
Swahili language. I insisted I was alone and I have never seen
Mungiki. They told me that if they could not find Mungiki at least I
was available. I asked them “what have I done.” One G.S.U grabbed
me and said “we can’t leave you alone.” He then threw me on the bed
and hit me on the face. He tore my inner pants and then r***d me.
Then the second one r***d me....” (Waki Report)

One of the well-known and regrettable tragedies of major conflicts and breakdowns of law and order is sexual violence. This has happened around the world. Sadly enough, it also was a consequence of the 2007 post-election violence in Kenya. Like others who either lived through or followed this terrible period of Kenya’s history, the Waki Commission heard anecdotally and from the media about sexual violence against both women and men.

These reports, admittedly informal, included heart wrenching tales of r**e, gang r**e, sexual mutilation, loss of body parts, and hideous deaths. In addition, the Commission also gradually learned that the various forms of ge***al violence against innocent victims were not just one-off tragedies but major life-changing events.

Among others, the Commission heard tales of family members being forced to stand by and witness their mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, and little children being r***d, killed, and maimed: innocent victims contracting HIV AIDS after being sexually assaulted because the breakdown of law and order and the deteriorating security situation kept them from accessing medical care soon enough to prevent it: husbands abandoning their wives who had been defiled, and the inevitable psychological burden of powerlessness and hopelessness that left individuals who had experienced sexual violence feeling alone, isolated, and unable to cope, not just for one moment in time, but possibly forever.

Worse still, the Commission also heard that some individuals who had lost family members and property, and who had been chased away from the only homes they had ever known, also had experienced multiple forms of violence that included sexual violence.
