Shocking! Couple dies at one week interval

Margaret Wairimu of 48 year old whose husband died by hanging himself in police cell with shoe laces has also died. Her body was found lying on her bed in her house in the estate located off Moi South Lake Road, a week after her husband’s death.

Wairimu’s husband, Peter KungĂș had been arrested for assaulting his wife and son leaving them with serious injuries. Albert Karanja, a neighbor said that Wairimu had been spotted the previous day in a bar; ”She looked okay on Sunday. Her death shortly after that of her husband has shocked us.”

Area Chief Ali Hassan said a postmortem would determine the cause of death; ”There is a lot of speculation regarding the death, but police have taken over the case.”

Suicidal cases have become so rampant. This comes shortly after the body of an elderly man was found hanging from a tree at Moi Ndabi in Naivasha. Naivasha sub-County Assistant Commissioner John Opondo said the man had yet to be identified because he was not from the area.
