Husband stabs man he found with his wife

A 29-year-old man is nursing life-threatening injuries at a city hospital after he was found in with another man’s wife.

The man only identified as Kangechu and the woman were together when the man of the house found them in his bedroom at around 4am.

Before Kangechu knew what was happening, he was stabbed several times by the man whom he later learnt was the woman’s husband.

Kangechu lives in Joska. He recounted how he met the woman at Barizi bar in Donholm at around 9pm.

They were enjoying several rounds of drinks celebrating their newfound friendship and agreed to head to the woman’s house.

But at around 4am, the man of the house returned from a trip he had taken to Murang’a.

On his way into the house, he is said to have spotted a wallet and a pair of trousers, further confirming his fears that there was a visitor in his house.

What followed was a confrontation that turned ugly, leaving Kangechu with serious injuries after being stabbed several times. The woman also suffered slight injuries on her fingers as she tried to prevail upon her knife-wielding husband to stop.

Police officers from Savannah police post responded to distress calls from neighbours and saved Kangechu who was bleeding.

He was taken to hospital where he is admitted in serious condition. Meanwhile, the man of the house remains in police custody.
