Raghuveer Kumbar, the perpetrator, reportedly had had a series of ugly arguments with his 65-year old father over his addiction to the game. But one that happened on Sunday ended up in the retired policeman losing his life.
According to the local police, Raghuveer cut off his father’s head and even chopped off one of his legs.

Moringa School Fined For Unlawful Buyout
Popular coding school, Moringa has found itself on the wrong side of the law after the institution was fined slightly over half a million shillings for an unauthorized buyout.
The school was initially owned by two individuals, Audrey Patricia Cheng and Frank Collins Tamre. But in 2016, Audrey bought off Frank’s stake in the institution, effectively making it a sole proprietorship.
From the look of things, there’s nothing technically wrong with this, unless of course the fact that they did not have authorization for this transaction.
This led to the institution getting fined Kes.503,656 by the Competition Authority of Kenya for this illegal transaction.
