Detectives in Eldama Ravine, Baringo County, are investigating the brutal murder of a 32-year-old woman, allegedly killed by her ex-husband for being in a relationship with another man.
According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the victim was found dead outside her boyfriend’s rented house with deep cuts on her head.
The attack is believed to have been fueled by a conflict involving her current relationship.
Saos area Chief, Judith Chebon, reported the incident after discovering the woman’s lifeless body on Tuesday night.
Neighbours said they last saw the victim heading to her boyfriend’s house shortly after 8 p.m., only for her body to be found an hour later, lying in a pool of blood.
“Detectives from DCI Koibatek have commenced investigations, and the prime suspect, Alex Kimeli Ng’elel (husband), who has since ran into hiding, is being pursued,” DCI said.
