A twenty-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, Nairobi News reports.
The woman who lives in Korogocho, a slum in Nairobi, is said
to 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-day-old son by the neck and under
her feet was my four-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 was 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.
