An altercation between two women over a Sh465 debt has been linked to the death of a child aged one-and-a-half years old in Kambu Township, Makueni County.

Zipporah Mutheu, the child's mother and a small-scale business lady in Kambu township, said she had lent goods to a customer two months ago but the customer defaulted on the payment.
