a man found guilty of killing a male friend of his brother's widow was sentenced to death in Kenya. William Chemase Sitienei stabbed Mr Daniel Kipketer Bartilol to death on June 6, 1999, in Uasin Gishu District. "He had spied on the deceased, planned the attack and had a motive, which was a jealousy as his brother's widow preferred the deceased to the accused," ruled Mr Justice Ibrahim presiding over the case in Eldoret. Sitienei was angry that his sister-in-law, whom he wanted to marry, had rejected him for her neighbour.
