A Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) soldier was murdered by six armed men who raided his home in Kandara, Murang’a County. But in a strange turn of events, two people - suspected to be part of the gang - were nabbed hours later while seeking treatment at the same health facility as the slain soldier’s wife and mother. The criminals also injured his wife, Mary Wambui, and mother, who were also in the house, before fleeing without stealing anything. After the rain subsided, neighbours rushed Wambui and her mother-in-law to Thika Level 5 Hospital for treatment. The body of the fallen soldier was later transferred by his colleagues to the Armed Forces Memorial Hospital in Nairobi.
