Residents of Kasarani estate in Naivasha were on Sunday Shocked after finding a 38-year-old woman identified as Purity Muthoni hanging on a rope in her sister’s house barely days after being diagnosed with cancer. 

According to a local daily, the woman had told friends that she did not want to undergo the pain other cancer victims go through. 

Emotions ran high as her kin and friends tried to come to terms with the incident which came a month after her diagnosis.

The mother of two had been undergoing treatment in different hospitals before she was diagnosed with the disease that has killed hundreds of Kenyans.

A neighbour, Ann Nyambura, said that Muthoni had been living in Olkalau where she developed a growth in one of her breasts.

“She started undergoing treatment in various hospitals and was misdiagnosed with other ailments until the final blow was delivered to her at Kenyatta National Hospital in Nairobi,” she said.

She said that the victim had been living with her sister who worked in one of the flower farms.

Naivasha OCPD Samuel Waweru said that the body had been collected and taken to Naivasha mortuary.
