Kenyans abroad have been hit by a wave of killings, suicides - including teenage suicides. This trend is very disturbing. Recently, according to the Gazette.net, a Maryland Community news website, Aggrey Mulo Naya, 46, hit his wife, Magdalene Syomba Naya, 36, in the head with a hammer and then stabbed himself to death in their apartment in the 18300 block of Lost Knife Circle, Montgomery Village. Police believe Aggrey Naya was trying to kill his wife, county police spokeswoman Lucille Baur said. She escaped and ran outside the apartment. Officers arrived about 11 p.m., after receiving a call about a domestic dispute, and found Magdalene Naya suffering from severe trauma to the head. Police do not yet know who made the call, Baur said. Magdalene Naya was taken to a local hospital. She remains in critical condition, but is expected to survive, police said Wednesday. Police found Aggrey Naya in a bedroom. He had self-inflicted stab wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. An autopsy ruled the manner of death as suicide and the cause of death stab wounds. Police are not saying what Naya stabbed himself with, Baur said. The couple's two daughters, age 15 and 10, were asleep in the apartment when the attack occurred. They were not injured and are now being cared for by family friends. Police do not yet know the reason for the fight, the time the couple began fighting, or if there were witnesses, Baur said. The county's 6th district homicide team is investigating. source: Gazette Join the discussion via telephone: +1.323.927.2930.
