Bugisu records 325 domestic violence cases in six months

Police last week launched a manhunt for a 62-year-old man, who allegedly killed his wife following a domestic wrangle in Mbale City, Bugisu Sub-region.

The suspect, a resident of Masaba Cell, Tsabanyanya Ward, Mbale Industrial City Division, allegedly hacked his wife Ms Filster Buteme, 52, to death.

Buteme was a mother of seven and had been married to the suspect for close to 11 years.

Ms Ruth Nagawa, also a resident of Masaba Cell, Tsabanyanya Ward, Mbale Industrial City Division, told Daily Monitor on Sunday that a violent argument ensued after the suspect accused the deceased of having an affair with other men.

Ms Buteme's death is just one case among several others that have occurred in the sub-region.
