According to the administrator, when Otieno asked for the knife, Oduor poured water on the fire and then picked a fight with him before drawing the knife and stabbing him to death.



The two orphaned brothers have been staying at their late parents’ home, according to Mr. Ogola, who claims that after committing the heinous act, Oduor came to his office to report that he had killed his brother.


The Assistant Chief stated that when he arrived at the scene, he found the deceased’s body in a pool of blood, with several knife wounds all over his chest.



He then called the police, who transported the body to the Siaya County Referral Hospital mortuary while the suspect was arrested to assist with the investigation.
