The two, a man and a woman, are from Nairobi and claim they have been bewitched by their family members.<\/p>\n<p>They were rescued by members of the public who dived in the sea as soon as the two separately jumped into the water. Hawaa Ibrahim, 28, is a mother of two and resides in Nairobi&#8217;s California Estate, jumped off MV Kwale moments after it had taken off from island side.<\/p>\n<p>She claimed she had suffered from depression and her relatives had taken her to a witch doctor claiming that she had been bewitched. &#8220;I have been abandoned by my family members. My husband Said Abdul an engineer in Nairobi left me and I had lost hope in life,&#8221; said the mother.<\/p>\n<p>The man, Nichodemus Masila, 33, a father of two Nairobi&#8217;s Kariobangi estate had come to visit his cousin in Likoni who had promised to offer him a job.<\/p>\n<p>He failed to meet up with his cousin and quickly became desperate. He said he has spent about a week in Mombasa and his cousin&#8217;s phone has been off since he arrived. &#8220;I was not in a position to provide basic needs for my family after I was bankrupt and my business was closed. &#8220;So I decided to come to Coast in a bid to rescue my financial status. After all my belonging was stolen on the way and I felt I have been bewitched. The only option for me was to die,&#8221; said Masila.<\/p>\n<p>The two are being held at Kenya Ports Authority&#8217;s police station. They will be arraigned in court today to face charges of attempted suicide.<\/p>\n<p>The Port Polce boss Agnes Mudambi urged the public to consult their family members on their whereabouts. &#8220;The lady will have to be medically examined to be sure if the claim that she is suffering from depression is true,&#8221; said Mudambi.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read the original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201105170125.html\" title=\"Two Rescued From Sea Suicide Attempt\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Two Rescued From Sea Suicide Attempt<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Nairobi Star (Nairobi) Kevin Odit 16 May 2011 Two people were separately rescued at the Likoni crossing channel after they attempted to commit suicide at the weekend. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-425410","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
