A man has been arrested for allegedly brutally killing his girlfriend at Kianjege village in Kerugoya, Kirinyaga County.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) said the suspect, Kennedy Nyamu, attacked 27-year-old Edith Muthoni by inflicting a deep cut on the back of her head.
Muthoni succumbed to the injuries upon arrival at Kerugoya referral hospital where she was rushed by a wellwisher.
The DCI said, “According to Kerugoya referral hospital manager Norman Gitari, the deceased was brought to the hospital in critical condition, by a well wisher. His medical staff tried in vain to save her life, prompting the hospital manager to inform our officers based at Kerugoya police station.”
The deceased’s boyfriend was then arrested after investigations were carried out.
He led detectives to the murder scene where they spent the better part of the night looking for more clues into the crime.
