Man, 20, hacks father, burns his body in Nyamira

Tragedy has struck Orwaki Village in North Mugirango, Nyamira County, after a young man allegedly attacked and killed his father with an axe before setting him ablaze.

According to Hellen Kemuma, the mother of 20-year-old Frankline Ouru, the suspect reportedly had a verbal altercation with his father, 62-year-old Julius Ouru, before violently turning on him.

The young man is said to have forced his mother and siblings out of their home before carrying out the fatal attack.

Family members and neighbors describe Ouru as a violent individual. In February, he was accused of assaulting and fatally injuring the family’s firstborn son, Douglas Ouru.
