Man Stoned To Death After Caught Defiling Their 11-Year-Old Daughter’s Corpse

 A 48-year-old man was stoned to death by his family members after he was found defiling the body of his daughter at his home in Kuresoi North, Kenya.

According to Nairobi News, prior to the incident the man and his family members were making burial arrangements of the 11-year-old girl, who died of a heart condition.

Confirming the incident, the area chief, Kuria Mburu said:

“His wife said she got suspicious when her husband kept sneaking into the room where his daughter’s body laid. She decided to follow him and found him in the act. She raised an alarm, alerting his five daughters and other relatives who beat him to death.”

One of the neighbours said she heard screams while working in her shamba about 500 metres away, but upon reaching the compound, the man’s lifeless body lay outside his house surrounded by the family. His body was later taken to a mortuary.

The police also confirmed the incident and have started investigations.

A source in the family who sought anonymity, revealed that the two would be buried on the same day but no burial ceremony will be done for the man.

“His body will be buried on Friday morning during the ritual, after which a memorial service and the normal funeral proceedings will be carried out for the girl.”
