Father kills his only two daughters aged five and seven after picking an argument with his wife in Kwale County.
The father allegedly had a falling out with his wife, Bridget Ndunge Muema, but decided to vent his rage on the children when she fled.
During the event at their Taru house on Sunday evening, the suspect sliced the children’s throats.
One of the girls was discovered in a pool of blood in her bed, while the other was discovered in a sofa set. The throats of the victims had been slit.
