Baby Amanda lost her life after allegedly being thrown off the balcony of her mother’s fifth-floor apartment by her uncle.
The suspect is said to have been heavily intoxicated when he visited Amanda’s home and caused a fracas before committing the unthinkable.
A statement by Jacaranda Gardens management noted that the little girl was at home with her nanny when the uncle arrived.
The nanny realised all was not well and raised the alarm by screaming for help, but assistance came too late as baby Amanda had already been pushed off the balcony.
Some of the neighbours who rushed to the scene upon hearing the househelp’s screams apprehended the suspect and called the Kiamumbi police, who subsequently arrested him.
The property manager noted that the case was transferred to Kahawa West Police Station, which later involved the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), who commenced investigations into the matter.
“The Officer Commanding Station (OCS) responded swiftly, and the suspect was taken into custody. Due to injuries he sustained, the police took him to Kiambu Hospital for treatment,” read a statement from the Jacaranda property manager.
The young girl was also rushed to Kenyatta University Teaching and Referral Hospital for treatment, but unfortunately, succumbed to her injuries.
Upon hearing the news of baby Amanda’s death and the circumstances surrounding it, a section of netizens expressed grief as they mourned the passing of the young soul.

Among those who mourned was Baba Talisha, who shared that he was with Amanda’s mother when the incident occurred.
He noted that Ann Syovinya is one of his old friends, and they were in a meeting when the unthinkable was unfolding at her home.
He expressed deep sorrow and regret over the tragic fate that befell the little girl, whom he said was Ann’s only daughter, and he prayed for the family’s peace during this difficult time.
“This is so sad. My old friend and boss just lost her only daughter. We were at a meeting, and she didn’t even know her daughter was fighting for her life. May God rest her soul in peace. I am so sorry for your loss, Ann. May God give you peace. It’s painful, and small caskets are the heaviest to carry. May God protect our kids in our absence,” he shared.
