A man accused of killing his ex-wife’s lover surrendered himself to the police in Kirinyaga. Simon Gitari, 40, took himself to Wang’uru Police Station on Thursday.
Shockingly, emerging reports stated that the deceased was Gitari’s cousin, and he was fully aware of his cousin having a relationship with his ex-wife something he was not happy about.
According to Mwea-East OCPD Dorothy
It is alleged that Gitari, who comes from Kamucege Village in Mwea constituency, stabbed his cousin on Wednesday. Angry residents had been looking for the suspect since the incident.
According to Josephine Wawira, her ex-husband entered her rented house and demanded to know why Muriithi was visiting her.
In a heated exchange of words, he somehow managed to find a kitchen knife and stab Muriithi to death.
Wawira said she began screaming and her neighbours appeared but Gitari had already escaped.
