A woman charged with hacking her neighbour’s thighs in Kawangware has pleaded guilty to the charges and told the court that she did it as an act of defence. Sandra Tamara pleaded guilty to assaulting Margaret Musiko before Kibera senior principal magistrate Phillip Mutua on Monday and said that her head was almost chopped off by the complainant. Court prosecutor Kinuthia Njenga while reading the court facts told the court that the duo lived in the same neighborhood. Despite being close neighbours, the two failed to solve their differences and the matter was taken to the court. Kinuthia told the court that Tamara then went into her room, grabbed a panga and slashed the victim’s thigh.
