A KDF sergeant was on Saturday night attacked and left for dead by a group of six.
The 38-year-old soldier and his brother were walking home from Fahari Hotel in Utawala, KDF posted on Twitter.
Along the way, the two came across a couple on a rendezvous and the deceased greeted the woman, something that seemed to annoy the man she was walking with.
An argument ensued and the couple together with the sergeant broke into a fight.
