Man beaten up for trying to stop fight between husband and wife


A man is nursing injuries after he was beaten while intervening in a couple’s fight inside their house in Kangemi, Nairobi on October 24.

Caleb Chimwani suffered actual bodily injuries and three people have since been charged at Kibera law courts with assaulting him.

The suspects accused of beating him up on October 24 include Brian Kennedy Otieno, James Wakalanga, and Frank Mwalia.

They denied the charges before resident magistrate William Tulel.

They allegedly roughed up Chimwani after he went to their friend’s house to intervene as he fought with his wife.

He had heard screams from the house.

The suspects raised alarm claiming Chimwani had attacked their friend inside his house and a group of their friends who were holding a self-help group meeting nearby joined them in beating up Chimwani.

The suspects were released on a bond of Sh10,000 each and an alternative cash bail of Sh30,000.

The hearing of the case starts on November 30.
