Kenya – A man was early Tuesday morning killed by a mob at Mwingi town in Kitui county after he was allegedly found in a s3xual act with a cow.

The man is said to have been found in the act at around 4am by a passerby at Mavoko area in Mwingi town, who raised alarm and neighbors came.

However, the man is said to have turned violent once he was cornered, hence mayhem erupted leading to his death.

The police were alerted and later came and moved the body of the deceased to Mwingi level IV hospital as investigations over the matter commenced.

Speaking at the scene, Kavuvwani Location chief Nicholas Muvengei cautioned Mwingi residents against taking the law on their hands.

He urged them to instead alert the police whenever they find somebody committing a crime so that the necessary legal actions are taken.

Another 35-year-old man from Mbondoni in Kangundo subcounty was arrested for bestiality on a dog.

Boniface Mutuku chocked the dog to death. Police rescued the man from being lynched by a mob.

The neighbours reported the matter to the police, who arrested him and collected 10 condoms suspected to have been used by the man during the act.

Mutuku allegedly took the dog to his house on Monday and engaged in the act.

Chief Bethuel Kingele said, “He was found having s3x with the dog after some neighbours noticed a foul smell since the homestead which belongs to his grandmother is abandoned.”

Kingele added that Mutuku might have been under the influence of drugs.

He is currently being held in Kangundo police station waiting to be arraigned in court on Thursday.

Neighbours also alleged that the suspect was also caught two months ago engaging in bestiality with a neighbour’s sheep.

Kangundo deputy subcounty commander Jackson Sang said investigations are ongoing.

“The man is suspected to be mentally disturbed but a mental checkup will give us the right information,” he said.
