Kisii man arrested over girlfriend’s murder

Police in Kisii have arrested a 25-year-old man who is suspected to have killed his girlfriend after an argument over alleged infidelity.

Omundi Nyabuto was arrested on Sunday morning after the 23-year-old woman’s body was found on the road side in Bomwancha village in Kisii South sub-county.

Eyewitnesses alleged that the deceased was killed elsewhere before being dumped at the scene.

The deceased identified as Diana Ondieki was allegedly living with the accused for the last two months.

“The two had wrangles  yesterday and Diana left but we don’t know if she came back later in the day,” said a neighbour.

The wrangles reportedly emerged after the boyfriend suspected that the deceased was having affairs with other men.

Gesonso OCPD confirmed the incident, saying the body of the deceased had bruises on the knees and arms.

The accused was taken to Gesonso Police Station as investigations continue.
