Shocking pictures have emerged on social media of a die-hard Manchester United fan who is reported to have committed suicide after Arsenal knocked his team from FA Cup last Monday.
The fan has been identified as James Macharia Teresia, 42, after an ID card was discovered from his pockets. The pictures show a body lying on a beach with a national ID card and some cash amounting to Sh300.
The images were posted on Twitter on Friday by Stephen Mukangai, a sports commentator of a local Kiswahili FM radio station.
“Hizi ni picha za shabiki wa Man United aliyejiua baada ya timu yake kushindwa na Arsenal,” read the caption accompanying the pictures.
Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale responded: “Let’s be sportsmen. So sad someone took away his life because Man Utd lost to Arsenal.”
