“I got burnt on my private parts and partly on the legs and thighs. I cannot even sit down normally,” she said fighting back tears.
David Yegon, one of Sharon’s relatives said the couple had differences they had tried to resolve before but to no avail.
“We have tried to solve this issues before as a family and I think it’s time the government officials intervened in the matter,” Yegon remarked.
Reports indicate that the 32-year-old, Alfred Kigen, had received a ‘hello’ text message from a female suspected to be his mistress.
Chemelet location Chief Evans Maritim confirmed the incident adding investigations into the incident would be conducted by police officers to establish what happened between the two.
Sharon has been treated and is recuperating.
