Angry mob kills woman suspected of husband’s murder

An angry mob at Katojo village, Kashasha parish, Ikumba sub-county in Rubanda district has lynched a woman suspected to be behind her husband’s murder.

According to Elly Maate the Kigezi Regional PRO, the deceased persons are Christine Kenema and her husband Mujuni Werreni 45 years.

The incident happened today morning (21/12/2022) at about 07:00hrs when Mujuni was found dead near his house.

His body was discovered by his neighbour who raised an alarm which attracted other residents including the deceased’s wife Kenema.

However, as the crowds gathered, residents started pointing fingers at Kenema accusing her of killing her husband since the couple had long-standing domestic problems.

The residents then descended on Kenema and lynched her.

The police were informed and visited the scene. Postmortem was done at the scene and the two bodies were cleared for burial.
