A 63-year-old man from Kwale is nursing wounds at Coast General Hospital after he was attacked on Sunday by criminals who chopped off his manhood.
Ali Abdalla was attacked by men who said they wanted directions to a village elder to report the loss of their two cows.
Abdalla's wife Mwanahalima Luvuno, said a middle-aged man arrived at their home at Mwananyamala in Msambweni asking the family if they had seen two stray cows.
Speaking at the hospital, she said her husband offered to show them direction to the village elder’s house about 600 metres away, where all cases are reported.
“He walked out with the unknown man in a black shirt and a cap that hid his face. One could not notice who he was. Outside he found three others waiting,” she said.
Luvuno said she decided to trace her husband after he took more than an hour to come back.
“I found him lying in a pool of blood groaning in pain after walking some few metres,” she said.
The man complained of a sharp pain below his abdomen and around his private parts as he lay on his stomach, according to his wife.
His son, Mohamed Sembera, 27, said this was a second attack against his farther.
“He had also been attacked in 2009 by unknown people, luckily he was not badly injured like what they have done to him now,” he said.
“We are really surprised that they only cut it off and disappeared with it with no clear intention why they did that,” he added.
The incident could be linked to witchcraft as the criminals never stole anything from the man.
Coast General Hospital chief administrator Bernard Mwero and provincial director of medical services Khadija Shikely could not be reached for comment on chances of the victim surviving.
