Residents said the suspect was among 5 armed men who attacked and robbed a trader at Mosocho area on Monday night. 

“He has just been given what he deserved because he has been doing the same to people. Crime must end in the area. Criminals are advised to surrender to police and apologize to the community before their lives are cut short,” said Michael Mbwayo, a resident.

Bogusero sub location chief Simon Mbwayo confirmed the incident and said the suspect had deep cuts in his head.

“The suspected died due to the serious injuries he had on the head. The murderers might have used a machete to kill him. Police have launched investigations to arrest the killers because no one is allowed to kill another. Suspects must be surrendered to police,” said Mbwayo.

The deceased body was moved to Kisii Teaching and referral mortuary.
