Ndhiwa: Woman beheaded while cooking in the kitchen

The headless body of Christine Auma was found lying in a pool of blood in the family’s kitchen house.

According to the police – Auma was attacked by unknown people while inside the kitchen preparing ugali for her family.

Reports indicate that her husband and other family members were gathered inside the main house; a separate building within the homestead at the time of the incident.

According to the area Assistant Chief Milton Kawino, Auma’s husband heard commotion from the main house and rushed to the kitchen in a huff.

“On reaching the kitchen, he found the body of his wife lying on the floor in a fresh pool of blood, with the head missing,” said Chief Kawino.

He said: “Our officers are actively investigating the matter. At the moment we are trying to hunt down the assailants and establish the motive of the attack."

The body of the deceased is lying at the Manyatta Kobodo mortuary.
