KAYOLE DCI are investigating a case where two children, aged five and three allegedly drowned in their 500litre water tank.
Their father, Peter Nderitu, a trailer driver, alleges that his wife Kawira could have been involved.
Two weeks prior, he was involved in an altercation with his wife, and neighbours claimed she attempted suicide in front of the children.
Kawira claims when the incident occurred, she was asleep. The deceased were transferred to Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital.
An autopsy conducted on Friday showed the two died of “presumed wet drowning.” Kayole DCIO John Marwa says investigations will ascertain whether it was an accident or murder case.
