Malaba Man on run after brutal murder of wife

Police from Malaba have launched a manhunt of a 38-year-old man who allegedly killed his wife on Wednesday and disappeared.

The body of the 36-year-old was recovered by the police lying in a pool of blood in a house in Kamuriai village, Teso North Constituency after breaking the door on Friday.

Police suspected that after killing his wife on Wednesday night by stabbing her several times on the stomach and chest, the man closed the door and went into hiding.

A neighbour, Beatrice Oteba said she heard the late screaming for help but she did not rush to the scene for fear of being attacked. “He had earlier warned us that nobody should ever interfere whenever he disciplined his wife and that is why we kept off,” said Ms Oteba.
