A pupil in Teso District has committed suicide after her parents insisted she should repeat Standard Seven.



Linet Auma, 16, swallowed tobacco pesticide and died before she was taken to hospital.

She had scored 188 marks out of 500 and her headmaster at Katotoi Primary School, Tonny Emayot, said she had been promoted to Standard Eight. But her parents wanted her to repeat and improve her grades.

Elsewhere, a 35-year-old man is suspected to have killed his father over a Sh2,000 debt in Ugunja District.

Search for help

The man is said to have lent his father, 62, the cash and in the morning threatened to kill him unless he paid up.

The assailant’s brother is said to have asked a village elder to intervene to end the dispute, but he was turned away.

The brother went to the local police station for help where he was told to go and wait for officers at home.

At 7 pm on Monday, his brother reportedly came out of his house armed with two rungus, headed straight to the parents’ house and slapped his mother. His father intervened and the two fought.

When the dust settled, the old man lay dead with a deep cut on his head.

The assailant was arrested.
