According to Radio Ramogi, Atieno's neighbours spotted her body hanging from a tree at her parental home. They hurried inside to alert her mother, only to find her lifeless body lying in a pool of blood alongside her granddaughter, who had several machete wounds.

In other news, Church members at the PCEA Tayari church in Molo awoke to unexpected news on Tuesday morning when robbers entered the church and stole items of unknown value.

Church officials reported receiving frantic calls from neighbours after the Church Security officer was discovered tied up in ropes at the church grounds.

The robbers are believed to have entered the church through the window, with officials stating they were after offering money gathered on Sunday during the Women's Guild function. Unfortunately, the funds had been transferred to the church's account.

Other things stolen from the church include a piano, a church amplifier system, pulpit covers, and hymn books. Church members have denounced the insecurity act and urged Molo police to conduct frequent day and night patrols to combat the rising number of insecurity instances.
