The man is said to have hanged himself a few meters from where he had reportedly killed the lady.

The incident just three days after a 38-year-old man hacked his wife to death in Sotik, Kenya’s Rift Valley, before hanging himself.

According to the local authorities, the man hacked his wife with a machete following a domestic quarrel whose genesis is yet to be established.

The woman succumbed to severe injuries while being rushed to a nearby hospital.

After attacking his wife, the man hanged himself on a tree, and his body was retrieved on Monday morning.

A source that spoke to the Standard Gazette on anonymity said the couple had experienced domestic rows for a long and attempts by immediate relatives and authorities to reconcile them hit a snug.
