The suspect, who had taken cows to the white settler's farm, allegedly picked up an issue with a farmhand before he struck the victim with a panga, killing him on the spot.

Witnesses said a second man attempted to separate the two but was hit on the head and died.

The bodies of the deceased were moved to the Makindu sub-county hospital mortuary as the police continued with investigations.

Four people killed in Thika

In other sad news, four families from Machakos are marking this year's Christmas with grief after their kin were found dead on Monday, December 25.

The four men had left their respective homes on December 18 to find work at a quarry adjoining a vast Del Monte pineapple farm.

It emerges that they later sneaked into one of the plantations, where they started picking the fruits.

They had it rough at the hands of the supposedly rogue guards protecting the farm. Their bodies were found floating on River Thika.

According to the bereaved families, their deceased kin were brutally clobbered by the guards who, after confirming they had died, proceeded to throw the bodies into the foregoing river.
