Two people,an elderly woman and a young man?died after
consuming poisonous second generation alcoholic drinks
at Jericho Estate in the outskirts of Kericho town. The two
died in their homes after consuming the deadly liquor in
one of the wines and spirits shops. Furious residents later
raided wines and spirits shops in Jericho and Kapsuser and
destroyed the remaining alcoholic drinks. Local,
administrators and leaders later collected the drinks and
said analysis will be done to determine whether they were
poisonous. They vowed to conduct a crackdown on illicit
drinks.
