Angry Mob Beats Up Suspected Thug to Death In Kwale

A suspected thug has been lynched by an angry mob in Matuga, Kwale County after a robbery attempt incident.

According to reports, the suspect attempted to break into a shop before things went wrong. The owner of the shop called for help and an enraged mob quickly gathered and beat him to death.

Kwale County Police Commander Steve Oloo has ideally confirmed this, affirming that the suspect attempted to rob the shop.

“We got a report from one of our retired officers that someone was trying to commit robbery but he was spotted and the owner called for help,” said Oloo.

According to police, the deceased succumbed to injuries inflicted by the mob who descended on him with stones, branches, punches and kicks.

In an incident in March, a mob of angry boda boda riders stormed Karatina Hospital in Nyeri and lynched two patients who were suspected motorcycle thieves.

The suspects, who had earlier been rescued and taken to the hospital, were lynched and their bodies set on fire as police officers watched helplessly.
