A 70-year old woman was yesterday lynched by
angry residents in Kisii after she was accused of
bewitching a young man in the village....
The woman is said to have cast an evil spell on the
man making him have a miserable life. Sources said that
despite his age of 30, the man showed no interest to
women and did not progress in life, a factor that was
caused by the evil woman.
Fed up with her behaviours, the angry villagers stormed
her house in the evening and demanded to ransack it.
She refused saying that she had not stolen from
anyone and that they did not have a right to check her
house.
They accused her of witchcraft and mentioned a
number of cases she was involved in. They claimed
that she had been behind a series of deaths that
occurred in the village including that of her own
husband.
They frog marched her to the nearest trading center
for all to see before lynching her.
The area's Assistant Chief who confirmed the
incident condemned it terming it inhuman. He wondered
how one could be killed without any solid evidence. He
promised to take legal action on all those who took
part in the exercise.
