A 29-year-old man is nursing injuries at a city hospital after he was found in a compromising situation with another man’s wife.
According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the man only identified as Kangechu and the woman were having a good time, when the man of the house busted them in his bedroom at around 4:00 am.
"Before Kangechu knew what was happening, he was stabbed several times by the man whom he later learnt was the woman’s husband," DCI said in a statement.

A shocked Kangechu who lives in Joska recounted how he met the woman at Barizi bar in Donholm at around 9:00 pm, where they enjoyed several rounds of drinks celebrating their newfound friendship.
As one thing led to the other, they agreed to crown the night in the woman’s house.
"But as they relished the moment at around 4:00 am, the man of the house suddenly returned from a trip he had taken to Murang’a only to be confronted by a strange pair of shoes at the entrance to his house.
"On his way to his bedroom, he collected a strange wallet and a pair of trousers, further confirming his fears that there was an unwelcome visitor in his territory," DCI added.
What followed was a confrontation that turned ugly, leaving Kangechu in serious condition after being stabbed severely.
The woman also suffered slight injuries on her fingers, as she tried to prevail upon her knife-wielding husband to give dialogue a chance.
Police officers from Savannah Police Post responded to distress calls from neighbours and saved Kangechu who was bleeding profusely, from the wrath of the angry man.
"They rushed him to a city hospital where he is admitted in serious condition. Meanwhile, the man of the house remains in custody on charges of serious assault," DCI said.
