A one-year-old Kenyan boy is currently fighting for his life in hospital after his mother chopped off his genitals under unclear circumstances.
After committing the cruel act, the monster woman identified as Winnie Mutheu fled her home at Kamandura village in Tigoni, Kiambu County, leaving the child for dead.
A neighbor said the mother of two told her that she threw her son’s genitals in a pit latrine before she fled.
The baby boy is admitted at Kijabe Mission Hospital in critical condition, according to Tigoni OCPD Mwaniki Ireri, who confirmed the Thursday incident.
The boy’s father got alarmed when his cries intensified and was shocked to discover he had been mutilated. He reported the matter at Tigoni police station.
“He asked his wife why their son was crying and she answered that the boy had broken his leg while playing with other children outside the house,” the boy’s aunt said.
“My brother then decided to examine his son, only to find no injuries on either of his legs. He went on to remove his son’s clothes and discovered that he had been physically abused.”
The motive behind the horrific attack remains unclear even as police continue to search for the woman.
“We are pursuing the mother, and we are confident that we shall find her,” said OCPD Ireri.
Children’s officer George Ngugi said they are working with the police to ensure the woman is apprehended.

How long does postpartum depression last?
Please look into your logic before posting. Anyway, it sounds like she has a big psychological problem.
God help her going forward.
Ppd if untreated can last for years. Maybe you should not only use your logic but seek knowledge so that you can respond to knowledgeable people
@kora kanini, that's what went to my mind.Not asane woman would do that.lf PPD is not Treated it Can last for months, even years.
I think you mildly said the truth in this case - long depression after birth! But, where is the father (the woman’s husband) in all this? Well, I’m not the judge and I hope things get better for both the mother and the son!
She could have been wanting a Girl; but got a Boy. And decided to have (the Girl) her Way.
Wow; you are very mean!!! Lordie; you are wildly mean @guest1.... no feelings at all? Sorry guy, you are mean!!!
You're blaming me for your crazy Auntie's meanness (to her son)? The 2 of you are Crazy for real. Go bail her out.
Mental health is desperately needed in Kenya. I mourn for that innocent little boy!
All this talk with mental health and postpartum depression is just sickening! Who said she was either of that? This is a grown ass woman with a fully developed mind slicing a helpless innocent 1 year old kid. Just picture that! Instead of feeling sorry for the " baby slicer" I'd rather see people standing up for the kid and condemn the woman as she deserves. All I gotta say is may the kid fully recover and the mother burn in in hell and what she did to the kid haunt her for the rest of her life!
Yes she may be a grown in ass woman with adeveloped mind as you put it.Just as developed by as the no fellow who shot Ronald Reagan.They be found this adult mentally unstable.
My point is the fact she did what many be normal women don't do, something must be wrong with her thought process at the time of booking committing the horrible be crime.Could also have been temporary.
Maybe the woman should get a slicing too so that she knows how it feels like. Tit for tat. F*** that mental health and depression stuff its a stupid excuse nowadays for all evil people do!
I'm not a doctor but I think this is a case of Postnatal depression.
Hopefully she will get the help she needs if this is the case,instead of condescension.
Hopefully the child recovers.
