Police search for a housemaid after an elderly woman died during an argument about cleaning supplies in Rukungiri. Officers say Constance, age 30, ran away from her job at the home of Kashillingi Kedress on Sunday morning. The 81-year-old farmer had hired the suspect recently when she spotted her looking for employment near Kebisoni Town. A relative returned home around 7:20 am Sunday to find Kashillingi covered with a cloth, not moving. Neighbors rushed over but found the woman already dead with head injuries.
The granddaughter had left earlier that morning with her son, leaving just the elderly woman home with the new helper. Their fight started over a mopping rag, according to investigators from Kebisoni Police Post. Officers discovered a farm tool with blood marks at the crime scene. They gathered witness statements from people who arrived first at the house. The local chairman reported the death to the authorities, who started an immediate search.
