Man dies after drunk wife chops off his genitals

A man whose genitals were allegedly chopped off by his drunk wife after a domestic quarrel in Free Area in the outskirts of Nakuru Town has died.

Mr David Ngugi Gakuru died Sunday at the Nakuru Level Five Hospital where he had been rushed for treatment by neighbours who responded to his painful cries on Saturday.

They said they found him lying in a pool of blood in his house.

The hospital’s medical superintendent, Dr Joseph Mburu, confirmed the death of the 52-year-old man.

Postmortem

Dr Mburu said a post-mortem exam will be conducted on his body.

“The patient had sustained injuries on the head and other parts of his body. We are going to conduct a post-mortem [exam] to ascertain the real cause of his death,” said Dr Mburu.

The man’s wife has since been arrested and taken to Bondeni police stations.
