The High Court sitting in Naivasha has temporarily stopped the prosecution of a French hotelier accused of sexually abusing one of his male employees until the 30th of November. High Court judge Christine Meoli ordered that current orders barring the prosecution of Jean Francis Lois Raymond Damon stay in force.
The judge made the ruling after a petition was filed by the hotelier who owns Sleeping Warrior Lodge in Soysambu Conservancy in Elementaita, Gilgil. Damon had gone to court seeking to stop charges against him of sodomizing a 22-year-old Maasai man who was working at his lodge in December 2011.
In documents filed in the court, the hotelier notes that if the charges continue, his reputation and standing in the society will be profoundly damaged.
According to the victim, Damon drugged him and later sexually abused him, an act that was allegedly captured on camera. Later, the trader, as per the court documents, promised to pay his accuser Sh300,000 if he kept mum, and the first batch of Sh150,000 was paid at a later date.
The complainant further made claims of being coerced into pornography at Damon’s home in Nairobi alongside six girls and four boys aged between 14-17 years.
All this was filmed by the trader for four days with drugs, liquor and sex being the order of the day before they were each paid Sh25,000.
Incidentally, the same hotelier was in March this year fined Sh40,000 in court for malicious damage and common nuisance after he urinated on two women near his lodge.
