A woman who died on Monday while undergoing treatment at a Machakos hospital after taking poison had fled her homestead three days ago, the Nation has established.
Elizabeth Mumbua, 60, died shortly after she was admitted at Kangundo Sub-County Hospital.
The treasurer of a table banking group in the area had come under intense pressure to surrender Sh300,000 which members of the group had raised throughout the year.
Trouble started after the women in the said chama reconciled their annual savings and found out that she had squandered all their cash.
The 60 year old lady reportedly vanished for three days before she returned back to her house and took poison.
She was rushed to a nearby facility where she was pronounced dead on arrival.
The area chief confirmed the incident calling for Kenya to use more amicable ways to solve their problems other than engaging in such horrible acts that have left many in tears.
