NAIROBI, Kenya, Apr 20 – Even before the wound of Agnes Tirop’s heinous murder begins to dry up, another female athlete has been murdered in Iten, allegedly by her Ethiopian fellow athlete lover, with her decomposing body found in their rented house. According to police sources, the athlete, Kenyan-turned Bahraini Damaris Muthee Mutua, was found murdered at a rented house Lilies estate, Iten, where she allegedly shared with her Ethiopian lover. “We are waiting for the scene of crime unit to process the scene which is a rented house. End GBV,” multiple world champion Hellen Obiri captioned a photo with the late Muthee which she posted on her social media.
