A middle-aged man who attempted to bury his mother alive over land dispute has been arrested by Bungoma police. Residents were shocked beyond words when they responded to distress cries from the ageing woman on Thursday, August 24 when they found her being buried alive by her son. The man, identified as Chris Wamalwa, is said to have been angered by his mother, Alice, who had sold a piece of land that he was hoping to inherit. In protest, the man decided to dig a grave and later threw his hapless mother in and started covering her with soil in broad daylight.
However, her cries of distress attracted the attention of passersby who rescued her before the worst could happen. Mother and son are said to have been embroiled in an unending feud and the son is said to be constantly attacking his mother especially when he is drunk.
The traumatised mother was rushed and admitted to Bungoma County Referral Hospital. According to eDaily, the two hail from Siuna village in Kabuchai, Bungoma County,Kenya.
