Mwanajeshi wa zamani ahukumiwa kifungo cha maisha kwa mauaji ya mke na watoto

Aliyekuwa Meja wa Jeshi la Ulinzi la Kenya Peter Mugure Mwaura amehukumiwa kifungo cha maisha jela na Mahakama Kuu baada ya kupatikana na hatia ya kuwaua mkewe na watoto wawili.

Jaji Martin Muya alisema mauaji hayo yalikuwa ya kinyama na yaliyopangwa kwa umakini. Alibainisha kuwa Mugure hakuonyesha majuto yoyote kwa kitendo chake.

Hukumu hiyo ilitolewa baada ya Mahakama kumpata na hatia ya kuwaua Joyce Syombua Maua mwenye miaka 31, binti yao Shanice Mugure Mwaura mwenye miaka 10 na mwana Peter Mwaura Junior mwenye miaka mitano. Waendesha mashtaka walitaka adhabu ya kifo lakini mahakama iliamua kifungo cha maisha.

Kesi ilianzia Oktoba 2019 wakati Mugure alipowalika familia yake kwenye Kambi ya Jeshi la Anga la Kenya mjini Nanyuki. Ushahidi ulionyesha kuwa aliwaua baada ya kula chakula cha mchana katika Hoteli ya Kilimara Springs na kisha kuzika miili yao Thigithu Kaunti ya Laikipia.
