NAIROBI, Kenya, Aug 13- A man is facing charges of issuing death threats to a woman who has consistently turned down his sexual advances.
The man was presented before Kibera law courts on Friday.
Polycarp Momanyi is being accused of threatening to kill Anyango Ochieng at her house in Kangemi within Nairobi.
The alleged incident happened on August 11.
On that day, the court was told of how he attempted to break into the woman’s house while armed with a panga. In the process, he destroyed the windows of her house.
It was the area administrator who came to the rescue of the woman and also proceeded to disarm Momanyi.
Earlier in the day, Momanyi had requested to spend the night at the Anyango’s house. His request was however turned down.
He denied the charges before senior principal magistrate Philip Mutua, who freed him on a cash bail of Sh100,000 and an alternative bond of similar amount.
The case will be mentioned on August 25.
