Man in Nakuru kills brother after family feud

Detectives based in Nakuru’s Bondeni police station, are holding a man who killed his brother following a family feud.

Abdul Irungu Jaffar, 28 and Rashid Kimani Karanja, 26, were engaged in a heated argument before Jaffar reached for a knife and stabbed his younger brother in the abdomen before he fled from home.

Their 37-year-old elder brother who had tried to separate them in vain, rushed his injured kin to hospital where he was admitted in serious condition.

When their mother learnt of what had transpired, she tried all she could to have the matter resolved by the family but unfortunately, her injured son passed on Wednesday night while undergoing treatment.

A manhunt for the suspect was launched leading to the arrest of the 28-year-old man who will face murder charges.
