A man in Rwanda who breached the ongoing lockdown to reportedly go fishing has been killed and eaten by a crocodile, the mayor of the southern Kamonyi district has told the BBC.
Alice Kayitesi said the Wednesday morning incident happened in the Nyabarongo river.
“He had broken the stay-home rule, he’s among very few people here who are not co-operating with the lockdown to stop the [corona]virus,” Ms Kayitesi said.
The authorities in Rwanda imposed a total lockdown on Sunday as cases of Covid-19 continued to rise.
The East African nation has confirmed 140 cases so far, the highest in the region.
The shutdown of economic activities in the country has severely affected majority of people who are low-income earners.
