Upon reviewing the judgment and witness statements, it was established that the daughter attacked another Maasai girl, Soila, and her boyfriend. As a result of the attack, Soila permanently lost an eye and her boyfriendโs car was damaged.
It also emerged that the daughter had been convicted by the first court and, on appeal, the conviction was upheld even with representation by an advocate.
