What began as a petty land boundary quarrel over a kale farm
between two brothers ended in bloodshed. One is now dead, the other stood trial
for murder. But a judge saw something deeper: fear, not malice, freeing him.
Samson Waweru, accused of murdering his brother Benson Waweru during a fight over land in Nyandarua, was acquitted after the High Court ruled that he acted in self-defence during a violent confrontation between the two in an incident that occurred on September 30, 2021, in Rwanyambo village, Kinangop South.
