肯尼亚前米戈里县州长奥卡奥·奥巴多因谋杀与其有染的26岁孕妇大学生莎伦·奥蒂埃诺被法院判有罪1。法官塞西莉亚·吉图亚认定奥巴多"策划了消除奥蒂埃诺的阴谋"，并"提供了动机、怂恿和资金来资助这一犯罪企业"1。
奥蒂埃诺的遗体于2018年在肯尼亚西部灌木丛中被发现1。案件中，奥巴多的前私人助理迈克尔·欧亚莫和前县政府书记卡斯帕尔·奥比埃罗作为共犯也被定罪1。三人已被羁押候判1。
记者巴拉克·奥杜尔目睹了绑架事件并设法逃脱，其证词对案件成为关键1。检控官诺迪恩·哈吉曾在2018年声明中指出追踪装置在绑架当天被关闭，次日重新激活1。
肯尼亚2022年全国调查显示至少34%的妇女表示曾遭受身体暴力1。
A Kenyan court has found former Migori County Governor Okao Obado guilty of murdering Sharon Otieno, a 26-year-old university student who was pregnant with his child. 1 The victim's body was discovered abandoned in bushland in western Kenya in 2018. 1
Judge Cecilia Githua determined that Obado orchestrated the killing, stating he "planned the conspiracy to eliminate Otieno" and "provided the motive, incitement, and finances to fund this criminal enterprise." 1 Two co-conspirators were also convicted: Obado's former personal assistant Michael Oyamo and former county government secretary Casper Obiero. 1 All three remain in custody pending sentencing. 1
Otieno, a university student, was in an extramarital relationship with the governor and was pregnant at the time of her death. 1 A key witness in the case was journalist Barakah Odour, who witnessed the abduction and escaped, providing critical testimony. 1 Prosecutor Noddin Haji noted in 2018 that a tracking device was switched off on the day of the abduction and reactivated the following day. 1
The conviction comes amid broader concerns about violence against women in Kenya, with a 2022 national survey finding that at least 34 percent of women reported experiencing physical violence. 1
