A bizarre incident was recorded in Kapsilibwa village in Sagamian, Narok County on Friday as two brothers ended their lives by hanging in an apparent suicide pact.  

Police reports indicate that Vincent Kipkorir Koech, 19, and Gilbert Kibet Koech, 17, entered into the pact after their father, David Towett, allocated a parcel of land to his first wife, who had recently returned to their homestead after being divorced years ago.

"This intended action was disputed by the two deceased brothers who even threatened to kill the whole step family and their father," a police report documenting the incident reads.

"The two had previous criminal records where they even stole in two churches in the area among other things."

Police have since processed the crime scene along the Amalo River while the bodies of the two brothers have been moved to Longisa County Referral Hospital Mortuary pending postmortem.
