A German national was recently found dead after a heated argument with his wife.

According to DCI chief George Kinoti, the 75 year-old Weise Klaus Armin, was involved in a heated argument with his 38-year-old wife Rosemary Wangui before his lifeless body was found hanging from the doorframe of their bedroom.

According to reports, Wangui had gone to see her ailing mother in Othaya on the fateful day.

When she returned later, she found his husband breathing fire, accusing her of infidelity.

To avoid this, she flee from her home after the husband threatened to kill her with a knife. It is then alleged that he locked himself in their bedroom where his lifeless body was later found.

When the police arrived in the couple’s home at Muhasibu Area in Gamerock in Nyeri, they broke into the bedroom and found Armin’s body hanging from a rope.

“A team of homicide experts from DCI headquarters with a back up teak from Crime Research and intelligence bureau as well as crime scene detectives analyzed the scene forensically, took statements from various sources and are awaiting for the deceased’s kin to arrive from Germany for a post mortem,” said Kinoti.
