Woman detained for stabbing husband

A woman who stabbed her husband several times will be detained at Kaptembwa police station for five more days.

Chief Magistrate Elizabeth Usui granted an application by the prosecution that the suspect Hellen Kerubo be held at the police station because it was likely that the assault charge preferred against her might be enhanced.

The prosecutor Faith Maalim informed the court that the victim Dennis Onyancha was in a critical condition and unconscious.

Kerubo committed the crime on the night of September 21 at 'Hilton' in London estate within Nakuru Town West Constituency.

Mr. Onyancha is still undergoing treatment at Nakuru Level Five Hospital.

 The suspect was arrested on September 22.

The case will be mentioned on September 27.
