Details are emerging that the late aristocrat Tom Cholmondeley might have died out of a curse by Maasai elders.
According to those privy to the details, the family of late KWS ranger Moses ole Sisina sought the services of respected elders within the Maa community to avenge the death of their kin.
Ole Sisina was allegedly shot dead by the scion of Lord Delamare at his expansive Naivasha farm.
The state however dropped the case against Cholmondeley citing insufficient evidence.
The elders reportedly carried out a ritual at the grave of Ole Sisina.
“It was a serious thing and it was conducted by very elderly Maasai. So when the elders heard the news, they knew it was a confirmation that the rituals still work,” said a family spokesman.
“The curse will follow the kin even after the death of the killer. They must go back to Sisina’s family,” he threatened.
Sisina’s widow, Lucy, concurred with the threats issued by the family spokesman.
“This might not end very soon, as far as the blood of my husband is not paid for,” added Sisina’s widow, a mother of eight.
“According to the Maa culture there are more misfortunes are on the way. My children are living in abject poverty. They have stopped going to school and their tears will continue haunting them.” the wife of the late told a local paper.
The family is now demanding several herds of cattle to settle the matter and protect the family from curses.
