A 27-year-old man was on Tuesday sentenced to serve two-year imprisonment by a Murang'a court after he was found guilty of assaulting and threatening to kill his elder brother.
Peter Munene Karanja was accused of hitting his brother Kenneth Wakaburi with a jembe and threatening to kill him on January 11, 2023 at Yamugwe village in Kahuro Sub County.
In his testimony, Wakaburi told the court that on the said date, his brother appeared at his home armed with a jembe, where he hit him on the left hip and knee threatening to kill him with his wife.
The complainant said he raised an alarm attracting neighbours who rushed to the scene and rescued him from his brother.
