TORORO-Police in Tororo district have arrested a woman suspected to have killed her husband in cold blood.
Mary Asio,42, allegedly killed her husband, Ladislus Onyango,45, following a domestic dispute.
The Bukedi South regional police spokesperson, Moses Mugwe, said Asio is detained at Tororo central police station on accusations of killing her husband.
“We are investigating circumstances under which she allegedly murdered a husband. We got a report from one Bernard Odem,39, the LC II Chairperson of Amagoro A parish in Eastern Division, Tororo Municipality that one Ladislus Onyango, a resident of the same address was killed,” he said.
According to police Odem heard an alarm from the home of the deceased.
