Monday, December 9, 2024 - A 28-year-old woman is in custody at Siaya Police Station after allegedly stabbing her boyfriend to death in Mur-Ng’iya sub-location, Siaya County, on Saturday night.
The suspect, identified as Vivian
Akoth, is accused of attacking and fatally wounding her 35-year-old boyfriend,
Charlton Obare, during a confrontation reportedly sparked by suspicions of
infidelity.
Assistant Chief of Mur-Ng’iya
sub-location, Grace Otieno, provided details of the tragic incident. She
reported that Charlton had returned home around 9:00 p.m. accompanied by a
friend, Reagan. Moments later, Vivian arrived at the residence.
As Reagan was leaving, he
overheard a commotion and encountered Vivian fleeing in the dark, pursued by
Charlton, who had already been stabbed in the chest.
When Charlton collapsed, Vivian
reportedly called Reagan to check on his condition and arranged for a motorbike
to transport him to the hospital. Sadly, Charlton was pronounced dead on
arrival.
Police visited the scene and
transferred the body to the Siaya County Referral Hospital mortuary. By the
time authorities arrived, Vivian had disappeared but later surrendered herself
at Siaya Police Station, where she is now being held as investigations
commence.
Assistant Chief Otieno used the
incident to urge young people to resolve disputes peacefully, emphasizing the
importance of dialogue in preventing such tragic outcomes.
