A 32-year-old bodaboda rider has been killed and his wife raped by a group of robbers who made away with his motorbike and two mobile phones in Got Rateng's community, Lambwe East, Homa Bay County.
The criminals reportedly stormed Jacob Osore's home at 4 a.m. on Tuesday, attacking him with a panga, knocking him unconscious before abusing his wife.
According to Lambwe East Chief Benard Ouma, the thugs were heard demanding money that Osore had obtained from a fundraiser held a few weeks ago to assist him in purchasing another motorbike after his previous one was stolen in a prior robbery event.
