It is said that the man killed his wife hitting her with a small hoe on the head. They have been living together in Karambi Sector of Gishihe Cell in Kigoma Sector.

Local leaders have revealed that the incident happened last night around 12:00 midnight.

The executive secretary of Kigoma Sector, Cassien Dukundimana has told IGIHE that the man had become a gang unwilling to work with her wife for the progress of their household.

“It is apparent that her husband had become a gangster. He killed her over disputes related to mismanagement of household’s property. The husband wanted to spend all the money earned together on drinks,” he noted.

Dusabimana and his husband had sired together three children.

Neigbours have revealed that disputes arose when the husband failed to get Rwf10,000 reserved to buy a roofing sheet that the wife had used to solve other household needs.

The suspect is detained at Simbi Police Station while the deceased was taken to hospital for postmortem.

Dukundimana appealed on residents to settle disputes amicably or seek assistance from local leaders instead of dragging themselves into crimes.
