KDF soldier mistaken for robber clobbered to death in Utawala

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.

When the couple was overpowered, they raised alarm screaming for help, saying they had been attacked by robbers.

As a result, a mob of six men came to the couple’s rescue and clobbered the sergeant to death. His brother escaped by a whisker.

Detectives have since arrested five suspects in connection with the murder. They will be arraigned on Monday to answer to their crimes.
