A 20-year-old Kenyan woman, has confessed to killing three
children, one of them her one-week old son, removed his intestines and ate
them raw, reports Nairobi News.
The woman who lives in
Korogocho, a slum in Nairobi, is said to have have slit open her week-old
son’s stomach, removed his intestines and ate them before going to her friend’s
house and killing two other children.
The friend, Nelius
Muthoni, told the police that the vampire woman came to her house in the morning and attacked her
by trying to strangle her.
“She
kept asking me why I named my son Peter Kimani and asked if I knew that my
mother-in-law had been eating me. She said a lot of things and even said that
there were demons inside me.
I
ran out of the house to seek help from neighbours and when they arrived, they
found her holding my 10-days-old son by the neck and under her feet was my
4-year-old daughter. She was stepping on her neck.
The
neighbours pushed her out of the house and tried to help the children but they
were announced dead at a nearby clinic."
When she was pushed out
of the house, the woman is said to have run to the Korogocho Administration
Police post where she reported that she had killed her child.
A police officer said:
“As
we were interrogating her, neighbours who learnt that Muthoni’s children had
died, also came here. They wanted to beat her but we shielded her."
A neighbour who was at
the police post said the woman did not seem shaken and even asked for a soda at
some point.
The police have also
concluded plans to take her for a medical examination to ascertain her state of
mental health.
