Police in Eldama Ravine, Baringo County are on the hunt for a man suspected of murdering his ex-wife in a deadly love triangle.
According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the victim, a 32-year-old woman, was found dead outside her boyfriend’s rented house with deep cuts on her head.
Authorities allege that the prime suspect, Alex Kimeli Ng’elel, attacked his former spouse after being angered by her moving on with another man.
