Woman killed, head chopped while cooking Supper in Gekong’o, Kisii.

Residents of Gekong’o in South Mugirango Kisii County were on Friday left with shock after a middle aged woman was murdered and beheaded by unknown people.

Linet Mbone is said to have been killed by the suspected criminals who broke into her kitchen where she was cooking ‘Ugali’ for her family.

 “I came from school at around 7pm and realized that my mother had been looking for me as she was not aware that I had attended school that day. I took a shower and proceeded to have a chit- chat with her in the kitchen.” Said Ibrahim, one of her sons.

“After a short period, a certain woman made her way in then I was forced to leave the kitchen for the main house. I told my younger brother to stay put with my mom” he added.

Linet’s younger son explained that the heartbreaking act happened very fast that we are unable to trace whoever did it.

“Mum asked me to go fetch cooking flour and I did it. My elder brother requested me to go and hang around with mum. When I arrived there for the second time, I found her dead, beheaded.” He said.  

Her children said the assailants were not spotted during the incident.

The family is said to have raised an alarm which attracted residents.

Linet’s body was taken to the mortuary as investigations kicks off.
