A Belgium-based Kenyan man, identified as James Ololo has been arrested after allegedly killing his wife, Elizabeth Wafula Ololo.
According to a Belgian newspaper HLN, the 55-year-old man drove to his wife’s house to plead with her to terminate a court case in which she applied for divorce.
James Ololo then refused to leave the residence, engaging in a fight with her and ended up stabbing her multiple times.
Neighbors who informed police of the incident and got him arrested said James Ololo has been engaging in frequent domestic confrontation with the deceased, contributed mostly by alcohol and infidelity.
A prosecutor in charge of the region where Elizabeth was living said James Ololo grabbed a knife and stabbed Wafula several times after a quarrel ensued.
“The victim ultimately succumbed to her injuries,” Gilles Blondeau added.
James Ololo and a friend known as Simeon Situma founded a company Kenya Experts Community a few years ago to assist Kenyans relocating to Belgium to establish businesses.
