Meanwhile, police in Naivasha are seeking a retired Chief who stabbed and killed a man following a difference in one of the estates on Thursday night.

The Chief, who has since gone into hiding, allegedly stabbed the deceased on the chest once, leaving him bleeding profusely during the incident near Sanctuary estate.

The victim said to be a casual laborer was pronounced dead on arrival at a nearby health center as police mounted a search for the chief.

According to a witness James Gitahi, the two were in a group of revelers drinking in one of the bars when an argument arose.

He added that the man who was bleeding profusely died minutes before arriving at a nearby health center where he had been rushed for treatment.
