A 24-year-old Linus Kiplagat Rono from the Kiplabotwo neighbourhood in Bomet County is currently recovering in Tenwek health center after cutting off his private parts. According to reports, the man decided to cut off his tools before discarding them after his lover declared them to be useless.


Geoffrey Korir, the local chief, confirmed the occurrence and stated that the man was bleeding heavily from his private region and that his family was sending him to the hospital to ensure that he receives the appropriate care before things got out of hand. His mother claims that when she observed him limping and was compelled to inquire as to what had happened, the victim disclosed he had removed his genitalia.



Initial investigations revealed that the individual regularly uses drugs in his community, a habit that may have motivated him to commit the sinful deed. Following the event, the administrator claimed that he had organized young people through the Nyumba Kumi project to ensure that drugs were not abused.
