On Thursday, Roselyda Akinyi, a teacher and businesswoman, left her home in Khaunga Village for Mumias town in Kakamega County to withdraw money for her two M-Pesa businesses.
The mother of four left customers waiting at her shop, promising to return shortly after visiting the Co-operative Bank branch in Mumias to collect funds.
After successfully withdrawing Sh285,000, she boarded a motorbike to rush back and serve her clients, who were still waiting.
However, barely a kilometre from the bank, at an area known as Mwitoti, she was intercepted by a saloon car.
