Tragic Incident in Kenya: Man Found Hanging on Mango Tree After Fatally Stabbing His Wife
A shocking incident unfolded in Cheberen, Mogotio, Baringo County, Kenya, where the lifeless body of a man named Kirwa Kipngetich was discovered hanging on a mango tree shortly after he had brutally stabbed his wife to death.
The grim discovery of the man's lifeless corpse hanging from the mango tree was made by a concerned neighbor who had gone to his farm for work. The neighbor was left deeply disturbed by the sight.
According to Cheberen's chief, Sammy Kandie, the man had killed his wife, Leolinda Jeruto, the previous night and then fled from an angry crowd who discovered his heinous act. He sought refuge in a nearby bush, where he remained in hiding.
Reports indicate that the man used a knife to fatally stab his wife, who worked as a JSS teacher at Tian Primary School in Cheberen, Mogotio.
One neighbor, who spoke to the police, revealed, “We suspect that domestic issues could have been the cause of this dreadful ordeal. The couple had two children and had been experiencing ongoing problems that kept them estranged for some time.”
Currently, investigations into the incident are underway as authorities work to gather more information about the tragic events that transpired.
