Police in Siaya county’s Bondo sub-county are investigating an incident in which a 30-year-old woman committed suicide at nyangera Kambajo village on Tuesday night after allegedly killing her daughter and mother, and seriously injured her boyfriend.

Identified as Macrine Atieno, she is accused of murdering her 10-year-old daughter and her mother, Perez Anyango, 60, before going to her boyfriend’s house and attacking and seriously injuring him before returning home and hanging herself.

According to Usire sub-location Assistant Chief Austin Bunde, Atieno is suspected of having disagreements with her 35-year-old boyfriend Kennedy Onyango.

Atieno’s neighbors discovered her body hanging from a tree in her paternal home and went inside to inform her mother, only to find her lifeless body lying in a pool of blood alongside her granddaughter, who had several machete wounds.

The Assistant Chief went on to say that it was later discovered that Macrine’s boyfriend, who lives on the same property, was also in critical condition as a result of the alleged attack.

The police were then called to the scene, where they removed the bodies to Bondo sub-county hospital mortuary for postmortem examination.

The boyfriend, who had lost a lot of blood, is receiving treatment in the same facility while the investigations continues.
