A 28-old-man has committed suicide after his mother refused to give him money for seeking treatment in Kogony village, Kisumu county.
Peter Ouma Nimwango is said to have hanged himself using a rope on the roof top of his house within his father’s homestead on Wednesday evening.
Ouma had allegedly fought with his relatively and sustained slight injuries according to eye witnesses.
His mother declined to give him money for treatment after she learnt that the deceased wanted to secure a P3 form to have his relative arrested.
The mother allegedly warned area residents against giving him money for treatment saying the matter had been resolved at family level.
The decision angered Ouma prompting him to commit suicide.
Assistant Inspector General of Police Joseph Keitany said deceased body was found hanging in his house by his parents.
Keitany said they are investigating the incident.
The body was taken to Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital mortuary.
