Kenya's Sexual Offences (Amendment) Bill, 2026 updates the 2006 Act to address sexual and gender-based violence facilitated by technology, including AI-altered images, sextortion, and online sexual conduct. It introduces harsh penalties, institutional support measures, and clearer definitions to improve prosecution and survivor protection.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face new legal risks and opportunities as Kenya criminalizes AI-altered intimate images and online sexual conduct with stiff penalties. Digital platforms must act fast to comply with takedown rules or risk heavy fines and legal consequences.
