A Kenyan man identified as Enoch Omollo, 48, alongside his wife Dorothy Omanya, 43, was reportedly found dead at their residence in Ukwala Location of Ugenya, Siaya County.
It was gathered that Dorothy’s body was found in the couples room while her husband body was found dangling in their sitting room.
Omollo was said to have murdered his wife before hanging himself.
According to the suicide note which was left behind by omollo, he carried out the act because of their inability to conceive and have kids.
The Area Assistant Chief Henry Oduor said that he received a text message from relatives of the woman informing him of a possible murder in Uloma C village.
Oduor said;
“I received a call at around 5.00am in the morning informing me that one of my residents had sent a message to his wife’s cousins telling them that he had killed their kin and so I rushed to his home immediately.”
The Assistant Chief said upon arriving at Omollo’s home, no one opened the door and after frantic efforts to reach him, his officers broke in to find out what had transpired.
They found the lifeless body of Omollo’s wife in the bedroom of the house, while Omollo’s body dangled from a rope next to the bed with a suicide note narrating the events of the murder.
Oduor revealed that the couple had disagreements over their lack of children which had led the man to marry another wife.
The bodies were thereafter taken to Ukwala sub-county Hospital Mortuary for postmortem examinations as police commence investigation into the incident.
