Three people found guilty of murdering two colleagues over a land tussle have been sentenced to 30 years in prison by the Kisii High Court. Jones Wambura, Tagane Mwita and Stephen Mahigara are said to have killed Samuel Magige and Samuel Nyamuroni at Kenyamangari village in Mashangwa location in Trans Mara on April 1, 2018. “This court has ruled that the three accused people are to each serve a 30-year jail sentence for each of the two offences they committed with both sentences running concurrently." He denied killing Nyamuroni and Magige, saying he knew nothing about the incident and only heard about it when he was brought to court. Mahigara, 46, told the court that he was innocent in the matter and was framed by some people who did not wish him well.
