A Kenyan man whose parent's-in-law stopped their marriage, did the unthinkable by killing his wife, their son and himself by setting their house on fire.

According to Nairobi Wire, the man who is from the Kiisi tribe, had met the woman in Nairobi, the country's capital and they had a one-year-old child together but when they travelled home to solemnised their marriage, the parents found out they were related and told them they cannot get married as it is against their culture.
