According to Njabini OCPD Peter Nzimbi, the estranged man slashed his 17-year-old daughter to death using a machete at Munyaka trading centre in Kinangop, Nyandarua.
Mr Nzimbi said the daughter was attacked while returning to their rented house after escorting her two siblings to school.
The man later rushed to his nearby home in Nyakio village where he used a rope to hang himself.
“The couple had fallen out forcing the woman to relocate to Munyaka centre where the man caught up with her, slashing her with a machete before killing the daughter,” said the police boss.
